Accomplishments
- Adapted a statistical analysis method to fit synthetic biology and wrote a protocol so that it can be utilized in other teams' projects
- Updated Drew Endy's bicistronic design constructs to be compatible with the iGEM registry standards
- Collaborated with over 75 iGEM teams to design a standardized datasheet for easier data representation and part characterization
- Officially submitted a new promoter to the registry and showed proof of function, with plans to submit the remaining four parts at a later date after further characterization
- Performed outreach to local farmers and producers in the West Lafayette area to gauge their thoughts and knowledge 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
