As the first German software team we are proud to present our ambitious project, a synthetic biological software suite, based on Google's collaboration and communication tool Wave. Announced as the reinvention of the email, Wave is the perfect platform to wire scientific research. As a symbioses of Wave with synthetic biological tools, our software is called SynBioWave.

Synthetic Biology aims at constructing whole new genomes. Such an effort is pushed forward by many users and relies on modular combination of genetic elements. The genetic elements represent an increasing complexity by assembling parts to devices and then systems. The construction process needs to be transparent and even at final stages control at the basepair level is required. We propose to build a user environment able to analyze and construct genetic parts and ultimately genomes.

Our concept is to create a collaborative web application called SynBioWave for synthetic biology purpose. Based on Google Wave and extended with molecular biology tools from the BioJava library, SynBioWave gives synthetic biological research access to the collaborative and interactive web 2.0.

SynBioWave makes use of Wave's powerful communication and collaboration functionality and is designed to be be easily extended with new synthetic biology functionality. Mashing up the reinvention of the email with a major library for processing synthetic biology data, raises science collaboration to a new level.

Our small team of three developers is not be able to create a feature complete software by iGEM Jamboree 2009. Our goal is to lay the foundation for a robust software suite and to implement some basic synthetic biological functionality to demonstrate the the principle use, with some molecular biology standard tasks Moreover we want to demonstrate the power of the wave approach for a distributed collaborative synthetic biology effort.
