<p style="margin-top: 0px;">We, the London university teams (Imperial, UCL, King’s and Westminster), are organising an outreach event aimed towards high school students, introducing them to synthetic biology and iGEM. We plan on having key note speakers, a panel style talk and a poster session of the current iGEM team’s projects. We would like to invite all iGEM teams, close and far, to come take part in our event by presenting their posters to teenagers and showing them the scope of synthetic biology.

If you would like to present, please do email us so we can have an understanding of numbers and can manage space accordingly.
+
We look forward to hearing from you!

<p>We need your help developing a team communication! We have noticed that team work can at times be quite messy, which is why we have decided to try and solve this issue by developing tools that allow team members to communicate in a calm and orderly manner. But to develope these tools, we need to understand the broad range of problems that teams face, and we cannot do this without you. More details of the survey can be found on the link bellow.</p>

<p>Along the same lines of communication, we have also designed a science communication guideline, as another issue that we see in our field is inconsistency when it comes to sharing information with non-scientists and the general public. To help scientist tackle this, we have designed this interactive guide, which is still in its early phase, but we would appreciate any feedback that you could give us on its usefulness and any ways that we could improve it. So please contact us if you would like a copy of the guide to critic for us, and we can put you down as collaborators.</p>

PixCell

Electronic Stimulation of Gene Expression


The more complex the system, the more control is required. PixCell introduces a new method of control to synthetic biology: electronic control.



“The most fruitful areas… of the sciences were… no-man's land between the various established fields” - Norbert Wiener

Electronic control circuits have provided us with the complex technology we use everyday of our lives. With PixCell we bring electronic control to synthetic biology. We also prove how it can provide the spatiotemporal control required for a key condition of biological complexity: patterning.
