Hello iGEMers. My name is Karmella Haynes. To read more about me, visit [http://www.bio.davidson.edu/people/kahaynes/kahaynes.html my webpage at the Davidson College website].

Hello Synthetic Biology
I first became involved in Synthetic Biology through Davidson's 2006 iGEM project. I came to Davidson with extensive training in "classical" biology research (Molecular Genetics). After learning more about iGEM, I was blown away by the elegance of the standardized system for assembling biological "parts." I instantly fell in love with the field of Synthetic Biology. I plan to continue research in this exploratory cutting-edge field. Perhaps I've been corrupted, having departed "classical" deconstructive biology for the engineer's constructive or "bottom-up" approach. Well, I am the daughter of an electrical engineer. Perhaps engineering is in my genes.

Current Work
Currently I am working on developing Davidson College's "E.HOP" living computer project to "completion" (a publishable unit). The Flash Animation below summarizes how we hope the living computer will work.
