Accomplishing Silver Medal Criteria


Silver All criteria must be met
1 Validated Part/Validated Contribution New biobrick Part function
2 Collaboration Worked with another iGEM team
3 Human Practices Our extensive human practices




Silver

1. Collaboration: We have greatly enjoyed interacting with iGEM teams from around the World and we generated an important piece of data for the team from the the University of Exeter. This is documented on our collaborations page.


2. Human Practices:We have engaged in many outreach events to publicise the awesome potential of SynBio including University Open days, school and public events. In addition we conducted a survey that assessed public attitudes to the use of genetically modified organisms for food or medicines. These are outlined on our Public Outreach and Survey (LINK) pages.


3. Validated Parts:We have generated a set of biobricks that contain a novel set of plant promotors in the Phytobrick standard. these are outlined on our Parts page. We tested these parts by expressing the Thyroid Stimulating Hormone antagonist (TSH) in the tobacco leaf expression system (COMPOSITE PART LINK).
