From 2012.igem.org
Projects
Our projects include Biosearch and Biodesign. Biosearch is an iPhone app which substantially increases the efficiency of searching biobricks in partsregistry.org. Biodesign is a graphics editing application specific to synthetic biology for both iPhone and iPad. Both of them combine efficiency with portability, showing that a new era of mobile biology researching is coming.

Future Plan
Key Features for in BioSearch v2.0 BioSearch is just a 2-month old software developed entirely by a group of passionate undergraduate novices from SUSTC who dare to challenge the unchallengeable. During the past 2 months, we are making every effort to optimize it incessantly. BioSearch still has a long way to go. With careful analysis and prudent evaluation of our application, here we make a list of improvements waiting to be implemented in next version. Develop an iPad version To better satisfy the need of increasing iPad user. Merge BioSearch with BioDesign We expect to import data from BioSearch to BioDesign to do biochemical reaction simulation. Then BioSearch will be even stronger and comprehensive. Establish discussion zone on our BioSearch Since the discussion zone on Partsregistry rarely has been visited. In order to promote academic communication between iGEM participants and synthetic biologists, we believe a discussion zone on mobile platform will be more popular and more convenient. That involves the management of discussion record on web server that might be achieved in the future. 
Enable BioSearch to support history view function If achieved, BioSearch will be even better than a web explorer. Manually/Automatically update database from Partsregistry Since the discussion zone on Partsregistry rarely has been visited. In order to promote academic communication between iGEM participants and synthetic biologists, we believe a discussion zone on mobile platform will be more popular and more convenient. That involves the management of discussion record on web server that might be achieved in the future. Introduce rating function to Bio Search We hope users could vote for their favorite biobrick as an encouragement to its author. |
