Ordered needed sequences to begin with Gibson Assembly
Created constructs for Interlab measurement study
Discussion with Anja Martinez from Thermo Fisher Scientific. She was helping us with some sequences which were too complex to be traditionally synthesized.
Took part to IDT webinar on gBlocks
Registered to iGEM Interlab measurement study. The goal of the study is to obtain fluorescence data for three genetic devices with the same protocols from teams all around the world.
Finished planning primers for PCR and sequences for synthesis services ordered from Genescript, who is supporting us with those! The first versions of our gene constructs are also ready.
Kemianteollisuus is going to sponsor us!
Started to work with our wiki.
Learning how to pitch at Startup Sauna Demo Day (logo?)
Learning about modelling. Merja Oja advised us about this.
Presenting our research idea to the Department’s research group in their monthly meeting.
The modeling of our reaction pathway has started.
Meeting with yeast expert Jussi Jäntti. We discussed the possibility of using yeast as a chassis organism and other approaches to propane production with researcher Jussi Jäntti from VTT Technical Research Center of Finland.
Discussion with Merja Penttilä. We talked about our ideas and different ways to approach the theme of propane production with the coordinator of the synthetic biology programme Living Factories.
Webpage ready! The web page is now coded and ready to be used. Some of our members learned a bunch of new stuff of html.
Learning to build plasmid maps. Our team member Anna showed everyone how to build plasmid maps.
IBC Finland announced that they will sponsor us.
First day in lab
High school presentation at “Magpie Island”. Telling about iGEM to students from Mäkelänrinne Sports High School.
Propane production in bacteria have been decided as our research topic.
Meeting with our Instructor Heli and a quick tour in the lab.
Professor meeting with Olli Ikkala. What does learning mean? How do machines and bacteria learn? How could we approach learning through synthetic biology?
Meeting with School of Chemical Technology. Meeting Janne Laine, the Dean of Aalto School of Chemical Technology was at least as encouraging as the meeting with School of Science we had had a week ago.
Student Union of the University of Helsinki (HYY) is our first sponsor!
Meeting with the School of Science. We met with Risto Nieminen, the Dean of Aalto School of Science. He was really excited about our project and seemed happy to help us. This made us even more excited and happy about our project!
iGEM 2015 distribution arrived! The package including BioBricks, linearized backbones, kits, stickers and pins arrived from iGEM headquarters.
Meeting with University of Helsinki. We met with rector Jukka Kola, the head of Helsinki University and Keijo Hämäläinen, vice-rector in charge of research and education. It was really exciting and encouraging to hear that the University is supporting us.
First skype meeting with iGEM Pasteur. Collaboration with Pasteur iGEM team from Paris started with a Skype meeting.
Brainstorming. We met for this purpose for several times during the spring. Outside the meetings, we researched the various ideas we had come up with and browsed through what the teams from previous years had done and what had been done outside iGEM.
First skype with the Stockholm iGEM team. Last years team was also present to discuss the practical issues with starting an iGEM team from scratch.
The first meeting of the 2015 team. Some had already met before, some of us met each other for the first time ever. A couple of team members from the 2014 team and our Advisor Markus were also present.
First anniversary of iGEM Aalto-Helsinki! On 14.3.2014 the first ever Finnish iGEM team met for the first time.
The new team members were chosen by the 2014 team.
Interviews held. More than 30 candidates were interviewed for the Aalto-Helsinki 2015 team by 2014 team members.
Application period for the 2015 team closed.
