MIT Synbio

Working Page for the MIT Undergrads for Synthetic Biology

Current ideas / To-Do List:

1. Constitution for Synbio Group

• http://openwetware.org/wiki/MIT_DIYbio:Constitution_Ideas to see a few examples. Possible ideas:

2. Public Website on OpenWetWare (With Links and Stuff) [A little more general than iGEM] [Check, TU-Delft style]

• You are looking at version 0.01.

3. MIT Undergrads For Synthetic Biology

• Working title for our group. Other options include "MIT Synthetic (and Systems?) Biology Organization," "The Coalition of the Willing," etc.

4. Synbio Group Must Have A Clear Interest- Mission Statement

• Promoting the rational/safe use of synthetic (and systems?) biology to solve both academic and industrial problems.
• Promoting the dissemination of information about synthetic biology to keep the public interested and informed.
• [Depending on how much of a DIYBio flavor we want, we could also talk about doing these things in an open source / cheap way.]
