| ==Project==
| |
| '''Our project will be mind-blowing and reality-bending.''' We'll be programming microbes to tackle a medical or environmental engineering problem, or both! Our group is interested in utilizing synthetic biology engineering principles in the metabolic engineering of bacteria for the production of sophisticated biomaterials, fine chemicals such as biopharmaceuticals, and renewable energy alternatives such as ethanol and hydrogen. <br />
| |
| | |
| | |
| ===Planning===
| |
| During our weekly meetings throughout the spring semester, we'll be discussing relevant literature and developing project ideas. Our actual experiments will occur during the summer session, and we hope to have our results in order by the beginning of the fall semester in September.
