Synthetic Biology: Engineering a Novel Organism (semester?), IPRO 302: Synthetic Biology IPRO 302 Midterm Report F06 Black, Robert Cappello, William Dunee, Brian Fernandez, Louis Hedden, Mark Heller, Matthew Mahmud, Saba Ross, Trillian Ruszczak, Christopher Sajjad, Sunny Sandulescu, Cornia Sobczck, Karol Ward, Christopher Witthans, Ryan Nicholas Menhart Synthetic Biology Genetic Engineering The specific plan for our IPRO is construct a synthetic biological circuit, that is both novel, aesthetically pleasing and independent of the host organism. This is a first step toward implementing entirely synthetic organisms that can be designed to a specification. The target we have chosen is a synchronized biological oscillator, implemented in a vertebrate organism, the zebrafish. To produce an organism requires a wide variety of skills and tasks. Accordingly we have organized into subteams, each responsible for progress in some area, with an administrative sub team overseeing all the events.
