Today we continued talking about eh project this year, starting to go more in depth into some of the procedures that the lab team will be working on this summer (restriction digest, PCR, Gel Electrophoresis, etc). We focused particulraly on Jeremy's circuits (the Mutants) and how they fit into the project

Today we also talked about the kick-off and our impresisons of it. For those of us who have never participated in iGEM before, it was a chance to get a better idea of the scale and atmosphere of the Jamboree. We all agreed that there is a lot of work ot be done, but we are up for the challenge, and it's going to be a challenge.

Building Tutorials

Our group first worked on orienting themselves within the second life interface including starting in-world tutorials for building with primitives. The manipulation of primitives was carried out within Ivory Tower, which was a walk through tutorial that taught us about all the possibilities within the edit option. This includes:

  • Modifying the different primitives that most items in Second life arise from such as changing their position, size and rotation
  • Changing a primitive’s colour and texture

So far the tutorials I have gone through on the base floor have just taught me really basic building skills and I have yet to make anything useful and I will continue to the upper floors of the tower for more instruction tomorrow. I would like to begin the basic scripting tutorials sometime this week and begin to apply what we have been learning using various sandboxes until our island is secured.

More Biology

I began looking at different pharmaceutical companies, lab and research and development organizations who may be interested in sponsoring our project. I researched these organizations and began making a list on gmail document to keep track of my work. I organized it by: Name of Company, Contact information, Contact position, form of contact, next steps, and contribution.

When my supervisors came in, we went more in depth with biology (Lux PQ, Lux OU, sigma 54 etc).

Outreach initiatives with Western Canada High School

Today, Thane, Sonja and I ventured down to Western Canada High School to meet with the curriculum leader of their science department. We are preparing a week-long summer camp for strong, motivated high school students to try to get them interested in synthetic biology. She is very interested and we will try to work through the CBE red tape to make this initiative happen.
