+ | <h3 id="7">Team: Cornell</h3> | ||
+ | <p>We have contacted the Cornell iGEM team in the summer of 2021 and have been keeping in touch frequently. | ||
+ | We | ||
+ | set up online sub-team meetings with Cornell every two weeks and have helped each other with different | ||
+ | elements of our projects along the way. </p> | ||
+ | |||

+ | </div> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <p>Firstly, the Cornell team has expressed their interest in making a survey of their own in the future. | ||
+ | Therefore, we have also shared our survey protocol and experience in survey setting with the Cornell | ||
+ | team. | ||
+ | <br><br> | ||
+ | Moreover, we invited the Cornell iGEM team to shoot a short video to introduce the iGEM competition and | ||
+ | contents of their project— Collatrix. We have displayed their video during our educational sharing | ||
+ | session | ||
+ | with the Grade 7 and 8 students of GT College for them to learn more about iGEM. | ||
+ | </p> | ||

+ | </div> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <p> | ||
+ | On top of that, the Cornell team has invited us to make a short video detailing our project and what iGEM | ||
+ | in | ||
+ | high school is like. They have shown our video in their HOSA learning seminars. The video was shown to | ||
+ | teens | ||
+ | aged 14-17 to hopefully encourage them to be open-minded about participating in iGEM while still in high | ||
+ | school. | ||
+ | </p> | ||

+ | </video> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <p> | ||
+ | Besides, we’ve helped with their product development team to design a code for the bioreactor. The task | ||
+ | is to implement an exponential feeding system of sucrose which is mimicked using motors controlled by an | ||
+ | Arduino. At the end of the day, they made adaptations to the code to fit their hardware setup. | ||
+ | </p> | ||

+ | </div> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <p>Lastly, we had a troubleshooting meeting with the Cornell wet lab team. Our research team had | ||
+ | difficulties | ||
+ | purifying the protein chimera, and we could see a lot of bands in our SDS-PAGE result. We sent our | ||
+ | protocol | ||
+ | for protein purification to the Cornell wet lab team, and scheduled a meeting to troubleshoot and find | ||
+ | solutions to this problem. In the meeting, Cornell suggested that the problem may lie on our wash buffer | ||
+ | or | ||
+ | loading dye. In addition, our chimera may be more sensitive to cleavage and break during the SDS-PAGE | ||
+ | procedure. The Cornell wet lab team suggested we use DTT as the loading buffer. | ||
