               At the beginning of IGEM 2018, I helped by collecting and reading research papers that could help us learn as much as we could about audiogenetics. I worked in the lab as lab lead which spanned different duties. I helped assemble plasmids, transform cells, and making plates and master cultures. I was in charge of the experimental setup which included exposing the cells to sound, making measurements and deciding what method to use to expose the cells to sound. The experimental setup included filling 96 well plates with appropriate dilutions and making Fluorescence and optical density measurements before and after sound exposure. Lastly, I helped to analyze the data obtained from the experiments.

Jessie Griesheimer
I led the Human Practices team focusing on how our project could affect the field of molecular biology and the brewing industry. I researched DNA watermarking and with the help of Florida Department of Law Enforcement, our Design, and Create Teams, a watermark was able to be integrated into our plasmid. I set up interview appointments with contacts in the field, interviewed the brewmaster, and took pictures at Proof Brewing Company. During the project I also wrote the HP report, detailing HP’s investigation of the team’s project.

Major: Commercial Entrepreneurship
Role: Fundraising Lead

Nedgie Paul
I serve as the fundraising lead and I am responsible for raising money for the team. This includes money for team stipend funds, lab equipment, iGEM competition expenses, and much more. I am also responsible for contacting, meeting, and following up with potential sponsors and investors. As well as networking and establishing fundraising opportunities and connections for our future iGEM teams. An important skills to have, as an entrepreneur, is the ability to raise money and tell a story and as fundraising lead I am able to do just that.

Human Practices Support

On behalf of the entire 2018 FSU iGEM team, Human Practices would like to thank everyone who helped us along with our research path. HP would like to specifically thank David Kant-Rauch, John Gonzalez, Sterling Strmel, and Ross Bartels for their assistance with Human Practices.

David Kant-Rauch took the time to clearly describe the brewing process and offered ways our project could be used in the brewing industry. Proof Brewing Company also allowed HP to take photos of the brewing facility which are used throughout the presentation and wiki.

John Gonzalez met with team members to discuss the team’s concern our project could become a potential biohazard in the future. As a part of FDLE’s evidence lab, he improved our understanding of how to mitigate the negative impacts of our project through the use of a watermark on our plasmid.

Sterling Strmel met with HP and was always ready for our questions on how to strengthen HP’s investigation of our research. During meetings with Sterling, she would help HP when we would get off topic.

Ross Bartels came to many of our Workshops and Tuesday HP/Design weekly meetings. He helped keep HP grounded when our minds went a bit too imaginative for the scope of our project at this time.

Attributions

This page is your opportunity to explain what parts of your project you did and what was done by technicians, advisers, etc. This requirement is not about literature references - these can and should be displayed throughout your wiki.

Bronze Medal Criterion #3

All of the work done in your project must be attributed correctly on this page. You must clearly state the work that was done by the students on your team and note any work that was done by people outside of your team, including the host labs, advisors, instructors, and individuals not on the team roster.

Please see the Medals requirements page for more details.

What should this page contain?

  • Clearly state what the team accomplished
  • General Support
  • Project support and advice
  • Fundraising help and advice
  • Lab support
  • Difficult technique support
  • Project advisor support
  • Wiki support
  • Presentation coaching
  • Human Practices support
  • Thanks and acknowledgements for all other people involved in helping make a successful iGEM team

Tell us if your institution teaches an iGEM or synthetic biology class and when you started your project:

  • Does your institution teach an iGEM or synthetic biology course?
  • When did you start this course?
  • Are the syllabus and course materials freely available online?
  • When did you start your brainstorming?
  • When did you start in the lab?
  • When did you start working on your project?

Inspiration

Take a look at what other teams have done:

Why is this page needed?

The Attribution requirement helps the judges know what you did yourselves and what you had help with. We don't mind if you get help with difficult or complex techniques, but you must report what work your team did and what work was done by others.

For example, you might choose to work with an animal model during your project. Working with animals requires getting a license and applying far in advance to conduct certain experiments in many countries. This is difficult to achieve during the course of a summer, but much easier if you can work with a postdoc or PI who has the right licenses.

Can we base our project on a previous one?

Yes! You can have a project based on a previous team, or based on someone else's idea, as long as you state this fact very clearly and give credit for the original project.
