getting started

  • the students prepare tutorials and present these on Monday July 7th to the team (have a look at the teaching resources below for inspiration) --> room 00.210 of the LBI from 10h to 15h, we'll go to Alma at noon
    • introduction to synthetic biology (goal, examples...): Benjamien, Nathalie
    • basic molecular biology and gene technology: Hanne, Jonas --> Results
    • BioBricks (how to work with them - standard cloning procedures - measurement...): Elke, Jan
    • modeling (what for? how? eg. Matlab simbiology etc.) + iGEM modeling (go through last years modeling parts to get an idea of iGEM modeling): Maarten, Nick
  • wet lab
    • the team will work in the CMPG labs
    • ensure lab guidance continuity
    • all students have lab coats
    • yet to decide how the costs will be arranged (also, do we order enzymes, disposables etc. especially for iGEM?)
  • dry lab
    • a desktop pc will be installed in room 91.13 (internet available)
    • Jonas and Antoine explore the possibilities of the wiki (a.o. notebook, templates (eg. digest, PCR... cfr [http://parts.mit.edu/igem07/index.php/Going_through_our_wiki Paris 2007]), ...) --> Results
    • during iGEM, everyone is responsible for the wiki
  • meeting arrangements
    • room 91.13 of the LBI is reserved for iGEM for the whole summer holiday (not on Monday 12-13 and Thursday 12-13)--> to do: clean + writing board + check who has access - also room 00.210 is reserved till July 25th (in replacement of 00.42). This room has wireless internet. --Sigriddk 10:02, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
    • weekly meeting at Friday from 12h to 14h in room 00.42 (except August of the LBI. You can order a sandwich by mailing to Inge before Thursday 16h. Students fill out the form by Thursday 16 (still have to put this online) - Put these in your agenda:
      • Friday July 18th (LBI Landbouwinstituut 00.42)
      • Friday July 25th (LBI 00.42)
      • Friday August 1st (LBI 00.42)
      • Friday August 8th (LBI 00.42)
      • Thursday August 14th (LBI 00.42)
      • Friday August 22nd (LBI TBA)
      • Friday August 29th (LBI TBA)
      • Friday September 5th (LBI TBA)
      • Friday September 12th (LBI TBA)
      • Friday September 19th (LBI 00.42)
  • summer planning
    • week of June 30th to July 1st = "orientation week"
      • prepare tutorials
      • assess the possibility of the project ideas
      • check that we're not repeating previous years' work
      • fill in the details of the project (interesting BioBricks to use, adapt, make...)
      • ...
    • full speed iGEM from July 7th to September 19th


the project
During orientation week, the timer project (PI control of drug production and timer for cell death) and the D project (with regulator and sRNA or with stable/unstable - gfp/TEV protease) will be assessed carefully (see the brainstorm page for an overview of these ideas).

things to think about

  • fund raising?
  • contact press - which? (Hanne has connections at Het Nieuwsblad)
