Project title: '''Engineering novel inputs for control of bacterial systems

'''

Description: This year, the Duke GEM team is interested in tackling problems
 
-
associated with engineering bacterial systems to be easily controllable by
 
-
clean, macroscopic inputs in order to create useful, macroscopic products, an
 
-
essential step in bringing synthetic biology out of the lab and into the
 
-
public. While electronic and photonic systems are extremely well-behaved and
 
-
understood, previous experience at iGEM has shown that biological systems can
 
-
be unwieldy, at best; this summer we are engineering parts and systems to
 
-
integrate electronic and photonic systems into genetically engineered ones for
 
-
a greater bacterial ability to synchronize, communicate, and be regulated.
 
-
Meanwhile, we are attempting to use these new elements to attenuate the precise
 
-
protein manufacture of tunable co-polymeric plastics with exciting new
 
-
properties.
