Welcome to UCSC's iGEM Wiki!
Our group is a team of 15 motivated interdisciplinary undergraduate students: 10 Biomolecular Engineers, 3 Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biologists, 1 Biochemist, and 1 Chemical Engineer. We hope to expand access to essential medicines and micronutrients by decentralizing production.
Spirulina
Project Description
UCSC's 2017 iGEM team recognized how global malnutrition amplifies problems for many low income regions; causing economic burden as well as diseases like blindness, disabilities, and anemia. In hopes to address these crippling medical issues, we are creating a decentralized, self-sustaining biological source of nutrition that could be grown cheaply anywhere in the world. Spirulina is a fast growing, nutrient dense cyanobacteria which is already utilized for nutritional supplementation all over the world. The goal for our team is to optimize Spirulina to make it more accessible and fill the nutritional gaps to make it an effective and complete vitamin. This reflects our ultimate goal: To deliver nutrition to underdeveloped regions.

Editing your wiki
On this page you can document your project, introduce your team members, document your progress and share your iGEM experience with the rest of the world!
Use WikiTools - Edit in the black menu bar to edit this page
Tips
This wiki will be your team’s first interaction with the rest of the world, so here are a few tips to help you get started:
- State your accomplishments! Tell people what you have achieved from the start.
- Be clear about what you are doing and how you plan to do this.
- You have a global audience! Consider the different backgrounds that your users come from.
- Make sure information is easy to find; nothing should be more than 3 clicks away.
- Avoid using very small fonts and low contrast colors; information should be easy to read.
- Start documenting your project as early as possible; don’t leave anything to the last minute before the Wiki Freeze. For a complete list of deadlines visit the iGEM 2017 calendar
- Have lots of fun!
Inspiration
You can also view other team wikis for inspiration! Here are some examples:
Uploading pictures and files
You can upload your pictures and files to the iGEM 2017 server. Remember to keep all your pictures and files within your team's namespace or at least include your team's name in the file name.
When you upload, set the "Destination Filename" to T--YourOfficialTeamName--NameOfFile.jpg. (If you don't do this, someone else might upload a different file with the same "Destination Filename", and your file would be erased!)
