Projects overview
Our Team this year have been startinge developping a huge and comprehensive project. We are the first team ever that will start doing synthetic biology on a vertabrate, and we would like to demonstrate demevelopping the genetic and modeling tools for various Xenopus, as well as creating a very ambitious project on engineering the first artificial hormonal system ever in science. We also think on the future of iGEM by proposing a new ambitious cloning system and finally, we are putting on stage the various ethical and safety problems of working with a superior organism
The project that we will work on this summer is composed of these 5 components
- Engineering a new synthetic hormonal system in Xenopus Laevis
- A multi-level approach for modeling synthetic systems in pluricellular organisms
- Developing biotic games with tadpoles for a better understanding of tadpole's biology
- Developing a new super fast onee-shot cloning technique for iGEM
- Ethical and legal implication of synthetic biology on superior organism
A quick summary of each project is proposed in this page. Please go on the specific page of each project for more details!
