<font color="purple">It would be helpful if you could provide us with some framing thoughts for how you will structure your article.  It's not clear how much input you want from OWW users.  For example, should we write the article on OWW, and have a continuous live in depth review of the field or are you going in a particular direction?  Thanks!  [[User:Endy|Endy]] 12:26, 16 June 2006 (EDT)</font>


We would like to this to be an in depth review of the field.  This is a first attempt at using OWW to write such a review and thereby engage as many as possible - so we would like any input - be it on content or style.  As we get organized, we will post an outline and ask for further input - followed by drafts. At this early stage, we find the input on papers and areas to cover to be very useful.

Beyond iGEM, there are some initial teaching efforts from courses taught at <br> UC Berkeley [[http://openwetware.org/wiki/Keasling%3A_Synthetic_Biology_Class]] <br> and at MIT [[http://openwetware.org/wiki/BE.109]] and [[http://openwetware.org/wiki/BE.180]]. Some of the MIT material was adapted as iGEM 06 teaching material at BU [[http://parts.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/BU06%3AReading_and_Discussion_1]] so it didn't take long for the use of even a fledgling curriculum effort to spread.
 
Hopefully, as Synthetic Biology advances, the research will provide examples and technologies that capture the distinguishing aspects of the field. It would be great if teaching materials could be developed in parallel to rigorously educate a larger number students who might later do this work. Perhaps somewhere in your review there could be an explicit call for curriculum development as well. -[[User:Nkuldell | Natalie]]

*I think it would be nice to see where Systems Biology meets Synthetic Biology, e.g the use of modeling tools in synthetic biology.

David Drubin and Pam Silver are writing an in depth review article on Synthetic Biology for Genes and Development. We would very much like input from the community. Please post any suggestions or papers that you would like us to talk about here. Thanks!
