Group Projects
BUGSS has worked on many group projects. Click on the links below to learn how BUGSS is contributing to scientific knowledge.
Chromoproteins
Chromoproteins produce a wide array of colors in nature. And, they enable us to genetically engineer cells and then use them for living artworks! But, can we make even more colors, and learn some basic biology in the process?
Barcoding the Harbor
Let’s face it: the Inner Harbor has seen better days. Barcoding the Harbor is a collaborative, community project between BUGSS, IMET, and the National Aquarium to study and improve the health of our Harbor.
Open Insulin
