iGEM Radio

The hottest new radio show in town featuring international iGEM teams and synthetic biology experts.

News

Our first episode interviewing Chalmers Gothenburg and Eriko Takano is now available!

Overview

Our aim is to raise awareness of the breadth of projects synthetic biology offers, and offer a platform for iGEM teams to share project news. The interviews will be archived by the iGEM HQ Alumni Association.

Upcoming program

Biodetection of hCG hormone Aug 3rd
Chalmers Gothenburg, Sweden and Dr. Eriko Takano

The Chalmers Gothenburg team are working to modify Saccharomyces cerevisiae to function as a biosensor for the human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (hCG). This hormone is produced in the body during pregnancy and and their idea is for their biosensor is to function as a simple pregnancy test. They also plan to introduce genes for bio-indigo production as the output signal of the pregnancy test.

Prof. Dr. Eriko Takano (Groningen) has an internationally leading position in the field of small signalling molecules in Streptomyces coelicolor, the model organism of the major group of commercial antibiotic producers. Her research interests include the synthetic biology of new antibiotics, the systems biology of the metabolic switch from primary to secondary metabolism, and the regulation of antibiotic production through signalling molecules.
