We accomplished many things this summer...
- Formed and registered the team.
- 3 engineers, 2 biologists, 1 business and 1 industrial design
- 2 sophomores, 1 junior, and 4 seniors
- 6 females and 1 male
- Obtained a Summer Undergraduate Research Grant SURG
- Submitted 35 parts to the Registry
- Documented a new photosensitizers, estrogen sensor and a robust T7 RNA Polymerase reporter system
- Validated a new photosensitizer and improved another
- Improved the characterization of fluorescent proteins and a T7 RNA Polymerase reporter system
We collaborated extensively:
- Participated in the iGEM Interlab Study
- Worked with Pitt iGEM Team on modeling
- Made a CMU iGEM Twitter
- Had a really great iGEM Meetup (September 6)
We spent lots of time with our community.
- Reached 531 students, ages 10-18, total of 243 hours and 32 teachers
- Designed synthetic biology kits for lending to middle school teachers through DNAzone Take Our Sons and Daughters to Work Day (April 24)
- Environmental Charter School Outreach (June 11)
- SAMS (July 3)
- Sciencepalooza (July 31)
- Science Scavenger Hunt (July 18)
- Pittsburgh Public School Professional Development (August 20)
- TechBio and SysBio presentation with Pitt iGEM (July 11)
- SRI presentation at CMU (July 11)
- Science Scavenger Hunt (July 18) We also worked on microfluidics chamber design, production and implementation We met with Dr. Vanbriesen (July 2) and Dr. Gregory (July 17) CMU Take Our Sons and Daughters to Work Day (April 24) Environmental Charter School Outreach (June 11) SAMS (July 3) Sciencepalooza (July 31) Science Scavenger Hunt (July 18) Pittsburgh Public School Professional Development (August 20) Awareness TechBio and SysBio presentation with Pitt iGEM (July 11) SRI presentation at CMU (July 11) Science Scavenger Hunt (July 18)
