Team Description
We are a first-year iGEM team from the University of Rochester in Rochester, New York. Our team is aiming to find new methods for the detection of endometriosis, a painful disease that affects an estimated 10% of women, with most of them experiencing symptoms without diagnosis for years. Our team would seek to replace the current invasive diagnostic methods with a cheap, fast, and non-invasive series of tests using synthetic biology and modeling.
