Minimal spec open thinking. 03:10. 03:50 six univ in Netherlands show logos... She iike Micro tubles. 05:00 Chromo mieosis on micro tubles video at 05:10. Measuring forces inside cells doing this. 07:00 cool real science image(s) maybe at 07:00. Self centering micro machine. 08:00 micro pumps using Tubulin: "Tubulin is the protein that polymerizes into long chains or filaments that form hollow fibers". Her agenda long term 11:45. 12:30. Snapshot of named persons in motive forces part of project, currently. 14:50 slide of named persons, names of some specific mini-projects in it too. 18 Minutes. 10) SB7.0 Day 1 - Foundational Science - Kate Adamala - BioBricks Foundation Dichotomy between purer Synth, and in old world in-Vivo. "Bottom up" or what. Pieces. 01:50. Compartments: DIY Compartments. 02:32. Oil water barriers. Energy versus thing slide 03:26. Usually starts with making plasmids to do things. 04:45 Fragment of sppech control of promotors to get DNA to listen up to designer goals. 05:50 Lower stuff inside slide. 06:40 Says libraries, many at once is the best notion doesn't always work all the way. 07:40 Nice slide of major ways to make a thing in S.B. Usual 'circuits' chat up. 08:20. Chat up on libraries not one-ofs attempts in her group. Trying to get some mix and match in the wet lab step. Using random arrangement, ( order ), to do some mix-match in the jars... Named persons at 11:06. 12:00 Trying to export products without blowing up the cell. 13:00 What id life look at other local planets with some s/c. Chat up asbout life without regular ribosomes. Trying to make dead ribosomes come alive without usual ribosomes. 13:34. Named persons, Univerity of Minnisota etc 15:00. 18:00 Chat up about dead cells coming back to life somewhat. Term "LIfe-o-meter" to measure it specifically. Kate hangs at U. of Minnisota specifically. 20 Minutes. 11) SB7.0 Day 1 - Foundational Science - Femi Olorunniji - BioBricks Foundation A University of Glasgow fellow. Phage to Low level slide kicks this off. Key protein is an 'integrase'. 02:14. 03:00 Slide of these developments veruss time. 03:50 Slide names proteins his lab uses. 04:30. Sort-of CRISPRey but more transient. 05:17. 06:15 Blots of stuff mixing and making new stuff this way. psi BT1 Integrase is a specific asset. 09:45 Slide naming many ways to use this technology. Main idea is 'Make RDFs'. 10:45 LIbrary of RDfs is a goal. 11:20 slide of named persons and institutions. 13 Minutes. 12) SB7.0 Day 1 - Foundational Science - Chenli Liu - BioBricks Foundation Says he started as an archetect. Says S.B. is similiar. Aggregating effect of how regular life itself into element after element. 03:30 Modifying 'genetic circuits' to make periodic things change number of elements. ( promotors, modified ). 04:00 Size of microbes defines a lot as they start; ( examples ). 05:00. Cells usually grow faster then chromsomes. 07:15. 20 min versus 40 min. 07:50. References, named 'laws'. 08:40 Theories of why cells decide when what happens. 09:10. 10:34 simple formulas tests of this. 11:00 Length width changes. 11:40 FUnny experiment to frustrate divison to prove some theories. Pictures of this working. 12:30. Some equalities formed by doing this; ( numbers ). So called "SMK law". 15:00. Hows this work inside ? Simple geometries tell the story ( areas, volumes ). 15:45. Bactera papers named, 16:45. Chats up S.B. to set these params as desired. Harvard, slide of folks at 17:20. 20 Minutes. Document end
