Team
Our team of sixteen students is from the Acton-Boxborough Regional High School, includes Akash Kapoor, Chris Kuffner, Mayank Mali, Benjamin Pervier, Madhuri Jois, Wynne Yao, Charles Taussig, Tara Jawahar, Rachel Tao, Katherine Liu, Barry Huang, Ben Stern, Justin Hong, William Huang, Victoria Chen, and Anusha Purakayastha, and is coached by Aaron Mathieu.
The team profile can be found here.
Project
Our team has finalized our large amalgamation of thoughts to a few possible projets:
Fat/sugar/protein converter
Genetically produced fuel/BioDeisel
Kopi Luwak Coffee
- 3-5 certain enzymes get rid of bitter proteins and carbohydrates, making coffee more sweet.
- Electronic nodes can be used to detect changes in certain composition of beans.
Bacteria that absorbs CO2/fossil fuel by product/catalytic converter
Skin regenerating Bacteria
Bacteria with memory/synthetic neurons
Synthetic/modified mitochondria or chloroplast
Notebook
First Few Weeks
In the first few weeks, we had introduced iGEM to students, taken sneek-peeks on projects done by past iGEM teams, and done small exercises. One example of a demonstration was modelling the process of producing a plasmid of recombinant DNA with restriction enzymes and ligase using pipe cleaners, candies, labels and scissors.
Up to February 26 2014
Our team has done some moderate research on final topics. The final project will be picked soon.
These are a list of the possible candidates:
- Fat/sugar/protein converter
- Genetically produced fuel/BioDeisel
- Kopi Luwak Coffee
- Bacteria that absorbs CO2/fossil fuel by product/catalytic converter
- Skin regenerating Bacteria
- Bacteria with memory/synthetic neurons
- Synthetic/modified mitochondria or chloroplast
February 27 2014 Narrowing it down.
- Genetically produced fuel/BioDeisel
- Kopi Luwak Coffee (COLI Luwak Coffe)
- Bacteria with memory/synthetic neurons / Battery?
