Judging


Registered for Jamboree

Cheers! Hope to see every single iGEM team at this year's jamboree!

Wiki

Welcome to the best wiki site! We hope you are enjoying it!

Poster

Come check out our poster at the jamboree!

Presentation

Our presentation is locked in at 9am Thursday Morning. Come check us out.

Judging Form

We have submitted our form to the iGEM site. You can look at this page however for a more in depth overview of what we have accomplished.

Attributions

This project would not have been possible without the support from friends, staff, sponsors, and more. You can find a list of all the individuals who supported us on our Attributions Page.

Characterizing a Biobrick

We decided to characterize the P450 gene this year. Find out more information on our Parts Page.

New Biobrick

Learn more about our biobrick on our Parts page.

Collaboration

We collaborated with several teams from around the world, including University of Minnesota and University of Montpellier, France. Check out our Collaborations page to learn more! We also collaborated with a team outside of iGEM called ITESG. Check out our work with them on our Partnership page.

Human Practices (Silver)

We contacted family members, friends, and representatives of the World Health Organization to discuss current issues with birth control. We sent out questionnaires to several grassroot organizations and advocacy groups around the world to gauge their interest in our product and learn about stigma, cost, and access issues. We also presented to local classes to teach them about iGEM and discuss potential ethical issues with our project. For more information, check out our Human Practices page!

Modeling

Check out our modeling team's work on our Modeling page.

Integrated Human Practices

We took what we learned from our questionnaire and other outreach efforts to create a product tailored to our potential users. The women who returned questionnaires encouraged us to consider cost, location, and accessibility. We localized contraceptive production because we were informed that drugstores and hospitals are far away for women in rural areas. We will use discreet packaging for our product because women are worried about being seen using birth control in stigmatized areas. We are also researching ways to get our product to market in several countries by collaborating with Family Planning 2020.

Demonstration of our work

We accomplished a lot throughout the summer. Click on our Results Page here to see the fruits of our labor.

Improving an Existing Biobrick
