2007 Virginia Genetically Engineered Machine (VGEM) Team
Welcome to the VGEM Team wiki! The VGEM Team was founded by George McArthur to enable the University of Virginia to send an undergraduate bioengineering team to compete in MIT's international Genetically Engineered Machines competition (iGEM). The objective of the competition is to design and build an engineered biological system using DNA. Systems will be constructed from standard biological parts. Last year, there were around 40 schools participating from around the world (see map). You can read more about the competition here. We'll be adding new information regularly, so be sure to check up on us soon.

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.
PlanningDuring 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. DocumentationResources |
