Crystallization goals for Short Term: Do the things within our reach to make the registry better and make the iGEM teams more successful.

Registry

To do this, we need to have a good picture and understand how the teams are doing, how they are working, how they are using the registry now.

  • Devices & Systems - unclear to teams what they do with the big parts of their projects
    • if you make a project, what part type/device/category is that; imagine a "projects done by iGEM teams" page or table on the registry
    • have a "rethink Devices & Systems"
  • Featured parts - Focus on the next user
    • perhaps ask team to make an abstract for logical sets collections of their parts that could be used in the featured part page; perhaps related to Devices & Systems
  • Favorite part button - don't overhaul part promotion process, just simplify process of making parts "favorited"
  • Tools: Sequence analysis 90% done; teams could use it to verify their parts quickly by uploading their sequencing runs to the registry
  • Documentation of parts - need guidelines; (and must make sure they are effective; randy thinks they won't be "by themselves")
    • Need published guidelines for doing good documentation
    • Need clear incentive for team to make good documentation for its parts
    • Need clear examples of good documentation & bad documentation
    • Rework part types (back to the devices & systems)
  • Part Promotion Process - Quick fix by tying it to the favoriting process, or spend 1.5 weeks building the real promotion mechanism
  • Part DNA
    • Acquisition of DNA - how do we optimize getting it
    • Sequence analysis

iGEM Teams

  • Psuedo Ambassador Program - everyone acts as an ambassador to their own subset of all the teams, figuring out what their status & progress is
    • Have meeting twice a week to review, decide how to help
  • Silent teams - figure out what teams are "silent"
    • intervention
