Judging

This page is to help the judges find the information that they need quickly and easily. Happy browsing!

Gold Criteira

We took a closer look at the previously submitted xylE construct. You can take a look at what we did on our Characterized Existing Parts page and on the registry for part BBa_K118021.
Take a look at our collaborations!

Silver Criteria

It worked!! Take a look at some of our new BioBrick parts that me made and characterized! You can find it on our Characterized Parts page and on the Registry for part BBa_K331027.

Bronze Criteria

We had a SPECTACULAR summer!! Check out our Artsmith and Publicity pages!
We are no doubt having fun at the Jamboree!
Come and check our our poster and presentation! We love talking about our project and hearing alternate ways to approach it.
Definitely registered for the Jamboree
Submitted the iGEM 2010 Judging form
Have a look at our team's project description. We have four subsections to our project; catechol degradation, compartmentalization, DNA degradation and magnetic nanoparticles.
Here is the list of parts we have submitted.

Human Practice

“Study the past, if you would divine the future” – Confucius

Scientific study is generally perceived as the development of new ideas and novel data, but underlying this is the fact that scientific advancement is made by building formerly known information on top of new innovation. Indeed, without the discovery of the cell, synthetic biology would never exist.
In the same way that scientific advancements can be made by looking at prior invention, the Lethbridge iGEM Team believes that synthetic biology ethical advancements can also be made by looking at ethical concerns of the past. Due to the fact that synthetic biology is such a new science, we are in the position to dictate ethical rules that should be implemented as new discoveries are made.
LethbridgeiGEM Team has chosen to look at significant scientific discoveries of the past and analyze them from ethical, environmental, economic, legal and social standpoints. Learning how ethics has been dealt with (or should have been dealt with!) in the past can significantly shape the direction of ethical development in the field of synthetic biology.
Through our analysis of cloning, antibiotics, the steam engine, internet and nuclear power, the Lethbridge iGEM Team will “divine the future” of ethics and its relationship with the newly developing field of synthetic biology.
