JJ has been interested in the amazing things that can be accomplished with synthetic biology for a long time and is always ready to learn new things. He used to dream of one day genetically engineering an actual, real, totally legit, fire-breathing dragon. Now that he’s actually learned a lot and gained that valuable experience through iGEM, his dream is becoming increasingly unrealistic because so far none of the science he’s done has involved dragons in any way, shape, or form; but there’s always next year.
