Revision as of 08:57, 27 October 2010
Detection of cell surface cancer markers is a key diagnostic step during cancer therapy as it allows the efficiency of a therapy to be determined. Current antibody-based flow cytometric detection methods are the gold standard. For our 2010 iGEM project, we hope to develop SensorBricks as a reliable and modular system for antigen recognition, signal amplification and quantification.
We want to push the boundaries of detection in order to allow earlier diagnosis and thus improve therapeutic prognosis in cancer therapy. Initial steps of SensorBricks will focus on the detection of CD33 and other leukemic markers to increase diagnostic stringency. read more

Behind iGEM
iGEM (International Genetically Engineered Machine) is the undergraduate competition on synthetic biology held at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Massachusetts, USA. More info
The central idea of iGEM is application of synthetic biology i.e., combination of biological science with engineering by simple modifications and assembly. The standardized biological parts (BIOBRICKS) are used to build safe and reliable biological devices and operate them in living cells for different application. Also, systematically engineering the biological processes, developing the new biological parts and characterising the parts.
iGEM is a great opportunity for the students to understand the research methodology and team work . Every step in the project from brainstorming, project design, experiments, report writing, troubleshooting and presentation will be done by the students with the timely guidance and support from the supervisors.
Our group Biotec_Dresden is the official team of Technische Universität Dresden and supported by the Max Planck Institute for Cell biology and Genetics. The team includes students from Molecular Bioengineering, Nanobiophysics, Faculty of Biology and Faculty of Dentistry. All the members have diverse study and research background like Molecular and cell biology, Biotechnology, Biology, Programming, Material science, and Biochemical engineering.
