NorCal iGEM Meetup
Over the summer, UC Davis organized an iGEM meetup with UCSF, UC Berkeley, and the Stanford-Brown teams. We started off the day giving a brief talk on each of our projects. After each talk, we had a chance to ask more questions about their project and offer possible constructive criticism. From this, we all received a different perspective on some of the tough problems we were trying to solve with our projects. After the meetup, we all had lunch and got to talk even more about synthetic biology among other things. To change things up, we also went bowling.
