Brainstorming

We have tried to set up our brainstorming sessions in such a way that creativity was stimulated and no important areas where missed:

  • First we enumerated problems which might be solvable by synthetic biology, then we gathered as many ways to solve them as possible.

Bacterial buffers

Hugo's Risk Scale

Our own standard for project risk assessment. Risk is represented with a value from 0 (no risk) to 10 (very risky)

  • 0: Lac operon (or other piece of cake) + our biobrick
  • 1: Less than 5 genes or biobricks (copy-paste) + our biobrick
  • 2: Less than 10 genes or biobricks (copy-paste) + our biobrick
  • 3: Biobrick engineering <5, improvement of things already done
  • 4: Multi biobrick engineering >5, improvement of things already done
  • 5: Site directed mutagenesis of several genes, results unknown a priori
  • 6: Evolutionary engineering involved = sequencing
  • 7: Protein engineering involved, results unknown a priori
  • 8: A lot of genes and/or biobricks (>20), known genes in other species and characterized. Stress, social friction
  • 9: A lot of genes and/or biobricks (>20), Known genes in other species, not fully characterized. Start a project one-eyed = stress, social friction, high chances of collapse
  • 10: A lot of genes (>20), Unknown genes= characterization + sequencing + cloning. Start a project from nothing or partially blind, team-member losses + obituraries. Good side: paper in Nature or Nobel
