| - | ==Collaboration Meetings==
| + | |
| - | ===June 25th: Calgary Skype===
| + | |
| - | '''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

| + | |
| - | *Bioreactors is probably something we can't collaborate on.
| + | |
| - | *They've ordered some Keio knockouts from Japan, we might be able to order some through them if we need to.
| + | |
| - | *They're developing some novel killswitches and would like to collaborate on a standardized killswitch assay.
| + | |
| - | *Calgary is willing to be guinea pigs for our IP survey.
| + | |
| - | *Advice
| + | |
| - | **Wiki should read like a textbook and take you from 0 knowledge.
| + | |
| - | **For contacting government, try talking to your MP.
| + | |
| - | *Our IP Human Practices Idea
| + | |
| - | **A protein-coding DNA sequence is patented. Can one e. coli optimize and change one amino acid to avoid trouble?
| + | |
| - | **Patents are national, but the iGEM and the Parts Registry are international. How does all of that interact? Will the Registry accept a part that is patented one place and not another?
| + | |
| - | *Going Forward
| + | |
| - | **We'll mail them our Vibrio reductase.
| + | |
| - | **They'll mail us hpaC.
| + | |
| - | **Cam, if willing, will briefly talk to or email them about his promoter library idea.
| + | |
| - | **Our killswitch subgroup will talk to theirs.
| + | |
| - | **They're going to BioBrick dszA & dszB and we're going to BioBrick dszC & dszD.
| + | |
| - | **Set future meeting by email. (I probably should have gotten an email address from them.)
