Goals

At the start of the summer, the different members of the Valencia_UPV team set themselves objectives in their respective areas to promote the automation of the cloning process and thus bring synthetic biology closer to the people.

Wet Lab

• Create a standardized Golden Gate basic Parts Collection to supply Printeria with the DNA toolkit to assemble composite parts.

• Provide Printeria with the best way to transform competent bacteria with the highest transformation efficiency rate.

• Avoid the plate colony screening step in order to eliminate the necessity of the researcher visual check, so easing Printeria automation.

Hardware

• Integrate multiple lab equipment around an automated friendly form.

• Design an easy way of handling a big variety of input liquids providing a straightforward integration with Printeria.

• Design an easy to use way of handling a big variety of input liquids with easy integration of the machine.

• Keep the footprint of the machine as small as possible.

• Allow for maximum flexibility on the use of the machine.

Software

• Develop a software that allows the user to control the device.

• Allow the user to design a transcriptional unit with the software.

• Allow the user to design multi-genetic constructions with the software.

• Get non-professional users to print basic genetic circuit.

• Fill out a “recipe” repository with at least 20 recipes.

• Make a user friendly interface to interact with the software.

• Control the device’s inventory through the software.

• Simulate the bacterial growth and the protein expression.

Modeling

• Design simple mathematical models based which allows us to simulate the different Printeria genetic circuits.

• Optimize model parameters to match simulation results to experimental data obtained from Printeria.

• Characterize the parts of our Part Collection from the optimization results and provide the user with all the information about the Printeria kit.

• Develop a Simulation Tool that allows the user to visualize a prediction of the results of their experiment before running it in Printeria.
