The 2010 MIT iGEM team. We are biological engineers, physicists, electrical engineers, chemical engineers, mathematicians, and computer scientists.
Programmable, Self-constructing Biomaterials |
The 2010 MIT iGEM team focused on the control and production of self-constructing and self-repairing living biomaterials through both bacterial and mammalian engineering. We ventured to set up the framework for material formation in both types of cells, for future applications in living, self-repairing materials and in vitro organogenesis respectively.
We have accomplished far beyond what we expected of ourselves! In addition to our project, we have created a new Mammalian Biobrick standard, contributed original parts for mammalian cells and bacteriophage, and we have biobricked two working toggles for the registry.

Undergrads
This is Andrew. He's pretty much a baller joke. Nah, just messin'.
This is Arvind. He's our secret weapon!
This is Crystal. She is a rising junior in Course 10 who is interested in nitric oxide!
This is Grant :cough: ..I mean Abdul. space filler space filler space filler space filler space filler space filler space filler space filler
This is Jstev. He's a rising senior from... wait for it... the University of Kansas! But we consider him to be an honorary MIT baller. Jstev gets paid more than we do and also has free housing. :( Chances are that Jstev is older than you, and he is known to some as Mr. Potatohead.
...JSTEV!!!

I'm Leanna. I'm a rising junior in Course 20. I like gymnastics and NCAA basketball (men's). I have two middle names. One day I want to learn how to surf.
My interests include tissue engineering, synbio, and interfaith dialogue.
This is Paul. He lived in Switzerland for years, and yes, he's related to John Muir.
