Results and Conclusion
- Adapted a statistical analysis method commonly used in industrial engineering to synthetic biology and wrote a protocol so that other teams can use it on their projects
- Updated Drew Endy's bicistronic design constructs to be compatible with the iGEM registry standards so that iGEM teams can have reduced variability in genetic expression
- Collaborated with over 75 iGEM teams to design a standardized datasheet for easier data representation and part characterization on the iGEM registry
- Officially submitted a new promoter to the registry and showed proof of function, with plans to send the four bicistronic device constructs
- Performed outreach to local farmers and producers in the West Lafayette area to gauge their thoughts and feelings towards synthetic biology
- Worked with representatives of the Girls Scouts of America to design and implement a biotechnology badge and introduction curriculum
- Continued work from the 2012 competition to create a community lab space in Noblesville, Indiana for public use and education
