- Presentation: Gave our presentation twice, and with success! We were awarded with the prize for best presentation!
- Gold Medal: Received a gold medal for all the BioBricks we made and characterized, our extensive human practice program and our modeling and software efforts.
Scientific Achievements
- Build 47 new BioBricks.
- Characterized 10 parts, they all work! BBa_K398326, BBa_K398029, BBa_K398406, BBa_K398108, BBa_K398018, BBa_K398206, BBa_K398017, BBa_K398014, BBa_K398027, BBa_K398030
- Characterized the existing BioBrick Parts: BBa_J61100, BBa_J61101, BBa_J61107, BBa_J61117, BBa_J61127
- Passed all the biosafety tests to work in our VMT lab.
- Simulated the hydrocarbon regulation expression mechanism.
- Realized an interactive way to show our metabolic flux analysis.
- Developed a software tool to find putative interactions for proteins in a new host organism.
- Developed a webservice to provide a part query interface to wiki javascript.
Human Practices
- Came up with a new approach to human practice - The EPAC pyramid.
- Addressed the impacts of the ongoing advances in synthetic biology and the ethical questions concerning these impacts.
- Discussed the ongoing debate about gene patenting and open source.
- Investigated the current perception of synthetic biology in general public.
- Made general public aware of our project.
