Talk:ETH 2006 Half adder

From 2006.igem.org

Pro's & Con's

Pro's:

• meaningful from engineering point
• valuable parts for synthetic biology
• stepwise proceeding applicable (→ intermediate and partial results!)
• experiments visually attractive
• probably simple enough

Con's:

• cheap copy of “bio-film” project ([http://partsregistry.org/cgi/htdocs/SBC04/index.cgi iGEM 2004])
• sensational experiments, have little in common with half adder
• maybe that a big vision is lacking
• general/practical benefit? (counter-argument: is this required?)
• too simple?
