Notebook

This page summarizes the timeline of our project this year. As you can see we formed our team in January, discussed multiple project ideas in February, and chose our first project idea in March, that changed along the way until July, when we chose our final project idea. From there, we contacted professors in our university to help us with the science aspect of our project until mid-October. From there, we focused on the deliverables for iGEM such as the wiki and the 20-minute presentation.
