At Cornell iGEM, we look to the future to build now what synthetic biology needs next. We developed our project with the synthetic biology community in mind, and built a tool that the field can use for years to come. Our project shifts the paradigm of cellular signaling to a frequency-based signal and is an innovative step in mimicking digital systems.
Come explore the future with us.
Wet Lab
But how? We rely on tunable protein degradation tags to control the kinetics of protein expression and sensory elements to allow cells to respond to frequency signals.
Modeling
Modeling the system in innovative ways was critical to our project, and is a modular tool that other teams can use in the future. Check out our work using advanced deterministic and stochastic models!
Human Practices
As a team, we always try to keep in mind the potential of our projects as well as the considerations we have to make. We spoke with other iGEM teams and synthetic biologists to learn more about how to design our system, and where it could go in the future.
