==Synthetic Biology Working Group lunches==
==Synthetic Biology Working Group lunches==
===Overview===
Current information about SBWG Lunches is located at [[SBWGLunches]].
Synthetic Biology Working Group lunches are an opportunity for anyone in the Boston-area who is interested in synthetic biology to get together and discuss current issues and topics in the field.  Each lunch discussion is led by someone (selected at the end of lunch the previous week) and focuses on a particular topic.  The style of the lunch is really meant to be a ''discussion'' rather than a presentation.  Therefore, discussion leaders frequently give a chalk talk or only have a handful of slides to help structure discussion.


*New Program for Summer/Fall 2008: Within the context of the standard lunches we will invite a group of selected speakers to provide 30 minute talks/30 minute discussions, on areas of emerging or historical importance for Synthetic Biology as part of our Synthetic Biology Lecture Series.  To nominate a speaker for an invited talk, email Julie Norville (norville.at.obvious.edu.)
Information pre-2010 can be found at [[SynBERC:SBWGLunchesArchive]].
 
Announcements regarding Synthetic Biology Working Group lunches are sent to synthbio AT mit.  To join the mailing list, go [https://ca.mit.edu/moira/index.jhtml here] or contact [[Isadora Deese]].  All are welcome to attend.

#[[Synthetic Biology:BioBricks/Standardization|Standards]] (also see talk page)
#Load issues
#*What demands on the chassis are of most concern to us? Replication, transcription, [[Endy:Translation demand|translation]], Enzyme activity?
#**Are we regularly placing high demands on the chassis with our existing systems?
#*What chassis responses to an applied demand are of relevance? Growth rate, protein synthesis capacity?
#**Can we specify a threshold demand level above which the chassis response is so severe as to render the our engineered systems inoperable? 
#Selection against our systems [[SynBERC:MIT/Calendar/2006-12-20]]
