Abstract
The project
Our goal is to develop bacteria which produce a particular scent and create a system for controlling it. Our device can be used in scent marketing and creating a unique atmosphere. We will put the bacteria in a container appropriate for the scent. For example, the scent of the forest could be produced in a container shaped like a nest box.
Currently we are working both inside and outside of the lab. Our research plan is complete and our research has started. We will further document our project as our research goes on. You can follow our work in realtime trough Twitter and our blog.
Our objectives are:
- Student-driven applied research
- Improving the knowledge in synthetic biology
- Promoting interdisclipinary and cross-university student cooperation
- Opening international networking, cooperation and competition opportunities
- Promoting synthetic biology as a science
- Improving research and business opportunities among students
