This page serves as a preliminary road map: What are we going to make? How? Where can we get ideas? Where and when are we going to discuss them?
Eventually, all will be moved to its dedicated space on the wiki.

Spelen met de wiki doe je in de zandbak, vragen stellen of suggesties doen op de discussiepagina.

Brainstorm

students and instructors brainstorm: Thursday May 22nd 10am @ ESAT 01.57

  • brainstorm project (each student presents his/her 3 favourite projects of previous iGEMs)
    • iGEM judging tracks
      • Foundational Research - basic science and engineering research
      • Information Processing - genetically encoded control, logic, and memory
      • Energy - biological fuels, feedstocks, and other energy projects
      • Environment- sensing bioremediation of environmental state
      • Health & Medicine - applied projects with the goal of directly improving the human condition


  • take group picture
  • choose our logo
  • iGEM what/when - summer availability - last exams (we'll put this on wiki)
  • interdisciplinarity?
  • background - organise tutorials / lab intro:
    • biotechnology - lab experience
    • matlab
  • wiki ideas / suggestions
  • teachers workshop Paris May 31st
  • BioSCENTer launch event - May 28th, 15u35/45 - Max Weber auditorium, Parkstraat 51
