I think it's good, though I still think that the gears should mesh (i hope that's the right english word), to symbolize a ''working'' system rather than just gears floating around. ----[[User:jonas|jonas]]

I think it doesn't make sense for me to fill in my name in some random american schools, since it doesn't really make a difference for me if I end up with  Duke or Penn state. We have to see how many european schools participate, to see how much of your presence is required there. Otherwise, i'd also like to see Japan [[User:Jonas|jonas]] 10:53, 25 Feb 2006 (EST)
+
-
 
+
-
I'm certainly willing to take one of the European schools, but as there are nearly no schools from Europe yet (I really hope this is going to change), I'm also perfectly happy with travelling a little further. I'd very much like to go to Asia (especially Japan), and I'd also do some schools from America (and Canada), if there are too many schools for too few US ambassadors. [[User:Tamara|Tamara]] 10:11, 26 Feb 2006 (UTC).

-
 
+
-
I am prepared to cover as many North American schools as necessary but will probably act mainly as a secondary for european schools.  Dibs on Singapore, though. --[[User:Ahessel|Ahessel]] 12:38, 27 Feb 2006 (EST)
+
-
 
+
-
I guess that for new continental european schools, we just put in our names (the ETH guys), without setting prejudices who actually takes these teams. I did this for Ljubljana. [[User:Jonas|jonas]] 16:41, 1 March 2006 (EST)
+
-
 
+
-
I am very flexible. It makes sense for Jonas, Tamara and me to do European schools. For me, a special preference would be NCBS Bangalore. -- [[User:Robin|Robin]]
+
-
 
+
-
I'd really like to see Montreal and Toronto!  I wonder if we could coax any teams out of Australia/NZ (not to mention more European schools)...I heard they have some great engineering programs there but I'm not so sure about their biology programs?    -- [[User:Melissali|Melissa Li]]

-
We have space for people to crash if they want to visit Toronto. :) --[[User:Ahessel|Ahessel]] 20:35, 21 March 2006 (EST)

Hey, I don't mean to intrude, but this seemed like the most appropriate place to make this suggestion:  Google Labs has a project called [http://www.google.com/coop/docs/guide_topics.html#Creating Google Co-op] that is "a platform which enables you to use your expertise to help other users find information," and allows "you to provide a customized search experience on Google for users who choose to subscribe to you."  It might be worth exploring as a tool for the synthetic biology community; I'm sure the iGEM community at least could benefit from your expertiese.  (As ambassadors who travel amongs the iGEM community, you may also find the [http://www.google.com/trends?q=synthetic+biology trends] tool fascinating because it provides some degree of demographic information for google searches, in this case those on "synthetic biology."  The graph seems to indicate the search volume from India is nearly twice that of the USA!  Normalization?)  --[[User:Macowell|Mac]] 23:54, 3 June 2006 (EDT)

Resources

  • jonas 05:44, 14 June 2006 (EDT): I created a page with Resources for ambassadors, where we should collect material like slides, pictures and other stuff that should life easier for ambassadors and prevents them from reinventing the wheel over and over.

Funding page

  • RS 11:25, 9 May 2006 (EDT): I seeded a page on Funding with some information. Please contribute. In particular, if anyone has an electronic version of the Cambridge brochure, it would be nice to link it there (if Cambridge doesn't mind).
