What we did

Charles Howes generated a FASTA file containing all biobricks, wrote a program that will emulate the biobrick protocol to generate a FASTA file of the product, and wrote a program to draw biobrick diagrams from component pieces. He also helped Eric Ma design a LIMS for our iGEM team, which should be finished sometime in the new year.

Hank Yu helped apply for team funding, spread the word about iGEM, and helped in the lab making media and running gels.
