SynBERC:COG

Welcome to the Construction Optimization Group (COG)!

At the last SynBERC retreat SynBERCers decided that solving the challenge of automated DNA assembly/cloning would be a priority for the center. COG will be tasked with drafting a report for the upcoming NSF visit in March(?) that evaluates current assembly approaches and proposes a path forward.

Goals

1. Maintain communication across labs on status of automated assembly projects.
2. Produce a report with evaluation of current assembly approaches and recommendations for going forward.

Meetings

Agenda:

1. What are the goals for COG?
   • Is the report described above a good 6 month goal? Should we be doing something else?
2. Next steps
3. Meeting frequency
