June Meetings

Funding: we sent mails to all the companies whom we had contacted in leipzig.. haven’t got a reply from any.. so we intend to wait few days and make calls by monday.. also the ones that are in Biotec we will go to them personally on thursday.. stanley and divya will be going to some of them.. it would be great if 1 or 2 more join.. we were working on the proposal with Ilaria during the meeting.

Ilaria and Kaj had some useful tips from the workshop, and the most important message was..USE THE PARTS FROM REGISTRY.

In the last meeting it was decided, we have to either come up with a new project using the biobricks or modify the current one to incorporate the biobricks.

the first task would be to read up on previous projects and look how they have used the parts from the registry. let us each read at least 3 previous projects and discuss them next week.. i have made a list(attached) of the prize winning ones and assigned 3 of them to each member from our team, emphasis should be on how the biobricks were used.. (If the advisors want to do it as well.. choose any projects u wish.. except the ones in the list)

Also please send your photos to priyanka for updating on the wiki. We should also have a group photo sometime next week (when Prof Schwille has time) for wiki

We got a reply from Eppendorf for sponsorship :). their representative is on a tour.. and will be in dresden in the 1st week of june.. and he wants to meet us.. he will inform us about the date and time later.

QIAGEN is willing to give us some kits.. so once we have designed our experiments.. we can contact them in this regard.

Priyanka/Tomek were supposed to contact someone regarding the silver binding sequence..

we also discussed about the possibilities of altering our project.

Prof Schwille suggested that we use lipid droplets instead of GUVs, also Ilaria spoke to senthil and got some info from him about microdroplets, we could discuss this further.

Prof Stewart was at the meeting for a while, and he discussed possibilities of using site specific recombinases, so he suggested 2 options which are interesting but can’t be done in vitro, so can’t be combined with the droplets. so we have to change our project completely.. But he also said that we could do them in 4-6 weeks, taking into account our inexpertise we could still say.. 8-10 weeks.. Which is reasonable..

we can talk about these projects and also about improvising these projects in our next meeting..

The 3 important points to focus on are 1. making a new part 2. making it compatible with the biobribks. 3. characterize it well.
