Hello, I'm a graduate student in the Tatar lab at Brown University.

iGEM Weekly reports:

I work on iGEM about an hour a day the rest of my time is spent working towards my research projects for my PhD.

Week 1 - I was on vacation

Week 2 - I've been getting my lab work started and making plans for the next 5 weeks before I go away on a 3 week course. Looking after James Brown and his visit. Working on the health and safety plan for the iGEM lab, we need approval to use the magnetic bacteria. Organising biohazard training for next week and preparing a workshop on modeling. The team leadership seems to be going okay, but a few of the ideas that we talked about last semester have been slow to get started (weekly reports, journal club, visiting speakers) I'm hoping that the leadership of the team can continue to come from the undergrads, but I think we need to improve communication to keep everyone in the loop. I hope that I can contribute to the ideas and help in the future planning for next year.

Week 3 -
