https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dan3T8-zAdw/ u know all those ppl in my igem team, we couldnt pay them stipends until the end of the summer, there were some ppl in my team who got an apartment, ppl paid for their own gas money for commuting but still made it to every meeting that summer bc they believed in the whole thing we were doing that summer and also in me, that is something ill also remember, we couldnt pay anyone until the end of the summer. i started that team from nothing just the idea that rutgers needed one so i thought (lol) im the best person to do so, i put up fliers i made myself, found ppl, they had to submit an application i made, we got lab space at waksman, our hours that summer were 10am-6pm, i wore so many hats: wet lab, programming, running the whole thing on etherpad, listening to ppl give me advice, making sure stuff gets done, figuring out the science, keeping ppl motivated, and everybody worked for free that summer bc the stipends we could give out at the end of the summer, but i retained everyone that entire summer. i knew who i was, i knew i was intelligent and creative and that i could do it. it was my idea to have wetlab projects & also to have a software project. thats who anyone wants to pick a fight with .. ok no problem. again, i was able to retain everyone that summer in my igem team bc they had to work for free bc the stipends we could only give out end of the summer -- if u want to pick a fight with me, well, im not someone u want to pick a fight with. there was a team the following yr that learned from how we organized our team, bc i had set up project managers etc & they had to report to me and etc and they copied us bc they liked that idea (its open source its ok to copy they gave us credit), i set up quizzes like ppl needed to be quizzed on the plasmid stuff, PMs needed to send out newsletters of their updates etc. i was el presidente & team leader, and everyone in my team was so confident that during the conference no one felt like insecure, everyone was very confident in who we were, we had great projects. and that was something i thought was great, no one felt insecure, we were happy with our projects AND when we presented, there were ppl who said, ~"we specifically came out to see u guys present" ok gotta sleep. if u cant retain someone (ME) and that i was on the penn medicine payroll, & i retained ppl in my igem team who were commuting from NORTH JERSEY (1.5 hrs) others who got an apartment in new brunswick, nj -- FOR $0 THAT SUMMER UNTIL we could give them stipends end of summer -- WHAT DOES THAT MEAN lol that u suck jason forever rotfl i talked to ron weiss briefly at the conf https://be.mit.edu/faculty/ron-weiss/ he was saying that he went from princeton (they didnt have an igem team anymore) to MIT, and i just had this thought in my mind, that maybe id work with him one day somehow. who knows. :) gnite! heres an interesting ron weiss paper https://cris.huji.ac.il/en/publications/tumor-selective-gene-circuits-enable-highly-specific-localized-ca/ im busy studying so ill come back to this. i remember now, so anyway he wrote that paper about sythetic biology and it was my required reading for everyone and i presented for everyone to understand it in one of our first meetings, i remember now i had emailed him bc me and jim stapleton thought he was still at princeton, maybe he could be our advisor (which is fine not a big deal to want to ask someone, jim came from uc berkeley/stanford not a big deal to want to ask him that) but he left by then, BUT he ended being our judge when we presented but he remembered that i emailed him, so as i shook his hand i just thought, maybe ill work with him in the future i dunno, anyway gotta study. oh thats right, that was the other cool thing for me, like having him as our judge, and being like, look it ended up happening, i ended up putting a team together, the area was in complex circuits, and he was our judge (which i did not know was going to happen, i did not even know he was going to be there), interesting right. something similar happened/could happen bc i wrote in scott belsky's name in my personal statement FOR SO MANY YRS, but i did not know hes literally involved with start ups at literally the same school, pretty interesting. https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dan3T8-zAdw/ u know all those ppl in my igem team, we couldnt pay them stipends until the end of the summer, there were some ppl in my team who got an apartment, ppl paid for their own gas money for commuting but still made it to every meeting that summer bc they believed in the whole thing we were doing that summer and also in me, that is something ill also remember, we couldnt pay anyone until the end of the summer. i started that team from nothing just the idea that rutgers needed one so i thought (lol) im the best person to do so, i put up fliers i made myself, found ppl, they had to submit an application i made, we got lab space at waksman, our hours that summer were 10am-6pm, i wore so many hats: wet lab, programming, running the whole thing on etherpad, listening to ppl give me advice, making sure stuff gets done, figuring out the science, keeping ppl motivated, and everybody worked for free that summer bc the stipends we could give out at the end of the summer, but i retained everyone that entire summer. i knew who i was, i knew i was intelligent and creative and that i could do it. it was my idea to have wetlab projects & also to have a software project. thats who anyone wants to pick a fight with .. ok no problem. again, i was able to retain everyone that summer in my igem team bc they had to work for free bc the stipends we could only give out end of the summer -- if u want to pick a fight with me, well, im not someone u want to pick a fight with. there was a team the following yr that learned from how we organized our team, bc i had set up project managers etc & they had to report to me and etc and they copied us bc they liked that idea (its open source its ok to copy they gave us credit), i set up quizzes like ppl needed to be quizzed on the plasmid stuff, PMs needed to send out newsletters of their updates etc. i was el presidente & team leader, and everyone in my team was so confident that during the conference no one felt like insecure, everyone was very confident in who we were, we had great projects. and that was something i thought was great, no one felt insecure, we were happy with our projects AND when we presented, there were ppl who said, ~"we specifically came out to see u guys present" ok gotta sleep. if u cant retain someone (ME) and that i was on the penn medicine payroll, & i retained ppl in my igem team who were commuting from NORTH JERSEY (1.5 hrs) others who got an apartment in new brunswick, nj -- FOR $0 THAT SUMMER UNTIL we could give them stipends end of summer -- WHAT DOES THAT MEAN lol that u suck jason forever rotfl i talked to ron weiss briefly at the conf https://be.mit.edu/faculty/ron-weiss/ he was saying that he went from princeton (they didnt have an igem team anymore) to MIT, and i just had this thought in my mind, that maybe id work with him one day somehow. who knows. :) gnite!

that's like, "i guess i did not need you, ron weiss, to be our advisor" moment -- i and we did it all by ourselves and our projects (esp bacterial full adder) were at the level of complexity of stuff he was doing. lol hehehehehee retrospect #micdrop
