June 25th Meeting

What University of Calgary Team is doing: continuing of their last year's project, try to build a biosensor to detect the toxin in the tailing pond, and possibly build a bioreactor to treat it, and potentially converting the wastes into usable hydrocarbons, and they are using dsz gene to take out the sulphur in the reactor.

Areas we can collaborate on:

1. Kill Switches

  • Calgary's kill switches are heading towards chemical induced ones
  • Ours are focusing on Communities based ones now
  • Possible options for DNA induced ones
  • Jacob is researching more about temperature regulated kill switches
  • Together, both team will design the best kill switch ever!

2. Human Practice

  • Calgary is thinking about doing a video game for now
  • We are thinking about IP outreach, and can potentially conduct some interviews on IP trouble shooting ideas

3. Modelling

  • Calgary is focusing on the bioreactor reactor environment in a tar sand plant, which is of our interest as well

Next Meeting: June 28th, 3pm, Location: TBA

Note: this is what I personally got out of the meeting, please modify or correct me if I am wrong
