When they’re not locking each other in a 4 C freezer or arguing about whether Dennis Kucinich is anti-American, the Princeton iGEM team is hard at work: to do with neurons what electrical engineers had already done with silicon chips back when the Charleston was the dance craze sweeping the nation. They are a motley crew of accomplished coffee thieves with majors ranging from chemical engineering to economics, which probably explains why they can’t agree upon anything and settle their differences with cold torture.




The goal of the Princeton iGEM team is to utilize the immense capabilities of neurons and in particular of neuronal networks – in terms of efficiency, speed of transmission of information and output, physical size, robustness, reliability, and programmable versatility – by taking two very different approaches to neuronal networks using gene-regulatory circuits.
