===Team BioToga_NY===
Team BioToga is excited to be part iGEM! This is our first year entering the competition, so we expect to learn a TON!
We are made up of Juniors and Seniors at Saratoga Springs High School, in Saratog Springs, NY. Team members are students in either in AP Biology, Biotechnology, or both classes.
BioToga is led by two mentors: Kurt Borchardt, a Biotechnology and Digital Electronis teacher at Saratoga Springs High School. We also have the invaluable help of Dr. Kelly Sheppard, Assistant Chemistry Professor at Skidmore College.
===Project - Biobrick Multimeter===
Team BioToga is going to design a biobrick "Multimeter." Our multimeter will combine various biobricks into one design. We want to develop a biobrick that can test for the presence of water contaminants such as lead, cadmium, mercury, and arsenic. Each contaminant will express a different fluorescent protein, such as BFP, GFP, RFP, and OFP. Our goal is to develop a multimeter that can test for 3 contaminants, with a stretch goal to test 4 contaminants.
Note: Two days after coming up with our idea, we did find that University of Seoul already did a similar project [https://2010.igem.org/files/presentation/Korea_U_Seoul.pdf], but as best we can tell this project wasn't done using biobricks, so our hope is to build off of U Seoul's work, but make our project by combining mostly existing biobricks.
