I work on synthetic biology in the [http://www.che.caltech.edu/groups/cds/ Smolke Lab] at [http://caltech.edu Caltech].  I used to work for the [[Ellington Lab]] doing directed evolution.

===Bi23: Nucleic acids from origins to bioengineering===
 
Last term I got to teach a class that I made up.  It was mostly about synthetic biology, although I tried to talk about origins some.  Then it devolved into a discussion of coming up with clever 'biohacks', or ways to reprogram functions of natural and synthetic genetic systems.  Mostly for devious ends.  I'll put up the slides and notes for it, and some of our hacks...
