Welcome to our wiki!

We, a group of undergraduate students at the Department of Biotechnology, IIT Madras, bring to you this year’s iGEM project: production of fuels by microbial electrosynthesis. This process involves using electricity to drive microbial metabolism. Carbon dioxide will be the carbon source; which will be reduced to the final product - the fuel
