Team:Bio Without Borders/Attributions

Attributions

This page shows how we divided and conquered the various aspects of our project. Each member played a valuable role, whether it was coding for the website or doing wet lab work.

Wet Lab Work

There were two main components to the wet lab part of our project

Factor C Work

  • Clearly state what the team accomplished
  • General Support

  • Project advisor support
  • Wiki support

  • 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?

Take a look at what other teams have done:

Developing the Public Privacy Forum

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.

Coding the Website

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.
