Revision as of 10:06, 19 October 2009
A “bio-screen” of voltage-activated cells, where every “cellular pixel” produces light. Using electrical signals instead of chemical stimulation, as in the Coliroid project, we are be able to see animated pictures!
Project description
Engineered yeasts able to sense and respond to electrical signals are build (what we call LEC). Thanks to a homemade device These LECs work cooperatively in such a way that they are able to reproduce images in movement, building up a "bio-screen" for the first time in history.
- LEC construction.
- LEC characterization.
- LEC Integration in the first iLCD.
Human Practices Report
Valencia Team is very concern with the ethical implications of SB and we have write down the book Sins, ethics and biology, which includes:
The Largest survey ever made in Synthetic Biology (more than 1200 answers)
A review taking into account more than 50 articles about filosical implications of Synthetic Biology
Interviews with experts in the field
Valencia Team
Integrated by students from the two main Valencia Universities (UPV and UV).
Emiment multidisciplinary group:
4 Biologist, 3 Mechanical Engineers and 2 Biotech
With a great repercusion in the national media!
Acknowledgements
This work has not been possible without the help of several Institutions and Research groups.
From Valencia Team, we would like to thank to all that people that allow us to pass this summer in working on this mind-blowing project
To see all of them
