Welcome to the 2008 VGEM Team's OpenWetWare wiki. This wiki contains the internal workings of our team, including our online lab notebook, project designs and other useful information. The VGEM Team is an undergraduate research group interested in synthetic biology and biological engineering, and will compete in MIT's 2008 international Genetically Engineered Machines competition [http://2008.igem.org (iGEM)] in November. Check on [http://2008.igem.org/Team:Virginia our official iGEM wiki] for our final project description and [http://seas.virginia.edu/VGEM our external website] for more information about the team.<br /> | |||
