Rationale: In groups, finish the final posters In-Silico results and become familiar with the new databases that would help with the independent research project.

Procedure: Groups from 3/18 worked to finish the In-Silico results, and the results were finished. In groups, each member looked at each module to help form some start to a testable research project. Group explored the bacteriophages genomics databases, and the databases helped narrow potential research question.

Results: Two topics were taken into consideration for a testable question that the group could further expand on.

Conclusions: Further analyzations need to be made in order to form two testable research questions for Monday’s lab. Other outside sources need to be brought in to help target the question. Potential independent research topic could compare the start site preferences of NapoleonB with other phages in AM cluster and the preferred ribosome binding sites could help bring other questions as well.

Future work: Poster will be updated to ensure the poster is ready for URSA. Form two testable questions that would help kick start independent research.
