Thank You

The PoPPY team would like to thank everyone who made this project possible, especially those described below. For the past five years, undergraduates at UCSC have participated in iGEM. This year, the team is composed of students studying Bioengineering (Biomolecular), Bioinformatics, Bioengineering (Assistive Technology: Motor), Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology, Marine Biology, and Cognitive Science: Artificial Intelligence and Human Computer Interaction. Our diverse group of individuals is crucial for the creative process behind using synthetic biology to help others. Modern engineering demands collaboration between individuals and pushes them to think critically and work efficiently. Through synthetic biology, the 2018 UCSC iGEM team is solving worldwide issues and developing methods to expand their research in the future.

The Project Idea

We came to the idea of PoPPY after many journal club meetings including all team members. The initial idea was proposed by captain Morgan Tardy and was eventually agreed upon by the entire team.



Official Team



Advisors

Dr. David Bernick, Assistant Adjunct Professor, University of California Santa Cruz, Department of Biomolecular Engineering

Guided our team and offered valuable insight and advice through each stage of the project. He also helped the team manage funding, finances and logistical tasks.


Mckenna Hicks, Master's Student, University of California Santa Cruz, Department of Biomolecular Engineering

Guided us and provided advice on gene design and wet lab experiments
