Purdue Team Notebook
From May 6th - June 17th of 2009 The team researched possible topics. We knew we wanted to focus on cancer, but had to start from the beginning by researching as much as could before deciding on a final approach.
June 17th, 2009 Team has decided to focus on engineering microglia to recognize and label/destroy glioblastoma stem-like cancer cells.
June 18th - 23rd, 2009 The team has begun to search for reviews on microglia cells and to find potential markers for glioblastoma stem-like cancer cells.
June 24th, 2009 We have decided to use BV-2 microglial cell line. Have begun to search for labs in America that are using it to have a less expensive shipping cost. Also, created a gant chart. This will allow us to stay on top of our project, assess and meet our goals, and keep team members responsible for being apart of the project.
June 25th, 2009 Dr. Selkoe, from Harvard Medical School, has agreed to send us a sample of BV-2 cells. We are working to secure the correct media needed for both microglia and glioblastoma cells.
June 26th, 2009 The team has decided to meet on Fridays as well as Wednesdays to allow for more face-to-face communication.
