Genetic engineering has a special appeal for reasons which are best summed up in a TED talk delivered by Gregory Stock: “A generation or so away… That\'s when we\'re going to begin to use this knowledge to modify ourselves. Now I don\'t mean extra gills or something -- something we care about, like aging.”' |

The same can be seen in the many realms of science I have encountered minus oral consumption of new chemicals or synthetic products; they never looked appealing to me. I have explored the realms of cell culture, nanomedicine, biomaterials, chemical synthesis, and now the world of synthetic biology! iGEM is an amazing experience and I look forward to being part of iGEM next year.
