OVERVIEW

To develop a diagnosis tool in detecting the Magnaporthe oryzae fungi, we incorporated engineering along with synthetic biology into our research. Our goal was to develop a proof of concept for a detection system, which is simple but specific. Also, we aimed to design a tool that is easy to use and visualize, so that many people will be able to use it. Therefore, it was essential for us to incorporate the engineering design cycle: research → imagine (brainstorming) → design → test → learn & improve. We have optimized this in a way that is suitable and practical for our research.

We divided our research into two phases, and went through several iterations of the engineering design cycle for each phase. Phase 1 aimed to apply synthetic biology to develop a system that could specifically detect the Magnaporthe oryzae gene. Phase 2 aimed to apply nanoscience and technology to develop a colorimetry tool to visualize the specific detection, which is important for practical purposes.
