We are group of undergrads that came together because we are really passionate about synthetic biology. We spent our summer working on synthesizing e-Coli. We learned a lot about bioengineering and had fun doing it.

We are undergrads with different backgrounds, but one common interest in the field of synthetic biology. We spent our summer working on making biological fuel cells more efficient at producing energy with the use of E. coli. Basically, we're making a BACTERY!</font></p>

      <p><font face="Tahoma" size="+1" color="#0B1907">Energy has become a necessity to sustain our society and to further our advancement. The depletion of fossil fuels and the need for clean electricity production has called attention to biofuel cells which convert chemical energy into electrical energy by electro-enzymatic reactions. This source of energy is sustainable, renewable, and does not emit CO2.

<p><font face="Tahoma" size="+1" color="#0B1907">Our goal is to design an environmentally friendly, and efficient bioanode that will maximize electron shuttling using various glucose oxidase mutant,s derived from aspergillus niger. Additionally, we will try to take MtrCAB operons from shewanella to make E.coli electric in the presence of an anode with nanowires adhered to it  which will connect to the shewanella nanowires. Increasing the efficiency of the overall biofuel cell will allow for many advances in the field of medicine, and technology. Biofuel cells can be used as portable power sources for miniaturized electronics, as well as self power implanted medical devices to improve health. For future research we hope to make this biofuel cell solar, cost effective, and to make clean energy a reality for all. </p>
