I would like to biomanufacture a drum head that is made from sweet potato culls rather than animal skin. My grandmother grew up on a farm in rural North Carolina, in a state where sweet potatoes are abundant, and a county where the environmental justice movement was born. My grandfather is from Nigeria, and I’ve experimented with various forms of west African drum and dance since I was a kid. Professionally, I currently work on projects related to the biocircular economy, and I’m interested in bringing these pieces of my identity together for this project.</description></item><item><title>Week 2 HW: DNA Design</title><link>https://pages.htgaa.org/2026b/rebecca-odim/week-02-hw-dna-design/index.html</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://pages.htgaa.org/2026b/rebecca-odim/week-02-hw-dna-design/index.html</guid><description>HTBAA Homework #2 Due: Tuesday September 29, by 2:30p ET (delayed due to Asimov access) Discussion Monday, October 5&#10;Part 0: Set up in Kernel This construct can be found in repository: odim-project in asimov.&#10;Part 1: Define your expression target Start from the project you proposed in Homework #1 and pin down exactly what your cells need to make.

ASSIGNMENT: CFPS REACTION DESIGN FOR SFGFP, PETASE, RETEPLASE Goal: using the collective intelligence of the HTBAA community and accessible AI systems, design novel CFPS reaction compositions for each of the three target proteins: sfGFP, PETase, and Reteplase to reduce the cost per gram of functional protein. Each design should be compatible with the experimental framework described above and should reflect the distinct expression and folding requirements of that protein. You can learn more about the details of the coopetition here.</description></item><item><title>Final Project</title><link>https://pages.htgaa.org/2026b/rebecca-odim/final-project/index.html</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://pages.htgaa.org/2026b/rebecca-odim/final-project/index.html</guid><description/></item></channel></rss>
