Project subject
We had multiple evenings together to come up with possible project subjects. We stuck on a DNA detector device using the CRISPR Cas9 system. Later we decided to primarily focus on the detection of bacteriophages in the dairy industry. The day organized by the Rathenau institute helped us to make this decision.
