University of York
The University of York is a member of the elite Russell Group of universities and is a dynamic, research-intensive university committed to the development of life-saving discoveries and new technologies to tackle some of the most pressing global challenges. The University opened in 1963 with just 230 students. Since then it has become one of the world's leading universities, carving out a reputation as an academic powerhouse where a clear focus on excellence has secured national and international recognition alongside longer established institutions. We would particularly like to thank Professor Brian Fulton, Dean of the Faculty for the Sciences, for the allocation of funds towards our project.
Department of Biology, University of York
One of the UK’s elite university biological sciences departments. The Research Excellence assessment (2014) has again placed Biology at York in the Top 10 in the UK and in 1st place for impact outside academia with its research having major influence on environmental policy, industry and health. In teaching, it retains a position in the top five biological sciences programmes in the UK, according to the most widely-used indicators published by The Times and The Guardian and the department scores highly for student satisfaction in the National Students Survey. We would like to thank the department for the generous financial support given towards our project, including the Giant Jamboree registration, travel and co-funding our student stipends through the joint iGEM funding scheme.
Department of Computer Science, University of York
A leading department for Computer Science in the UK, and is consistently highly ranked in UK league tables and for student satisfaction. The Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2014 results ranked York's Computer Science 7th overall in the UK; 5th for impact and 6th for environment. We would like to thank the department for their financial contribution towards our project.

The Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC)
The BBSRC is one of seven Research Councils that work together as Research Councils UK (RCUK). They fund world-class bioscience research that helps to tackle major challenges such as the impact of climate change, a healthier old age , and sustainable food production, land use and energy production. We would like to thank them for co-funding our student stipends through the joint iGEM funding scheme, which was coordinated by Professor Richard Cogdell FRS (University of Glasgow) and Professor Tracy Palmer FRSE (University of Dundee).
The Wellcome Trust
A global charitable foundation dedicated to improving health by supporting bright minds in science, the humanities and social sciences, and public engagement. We would like to thank them for co-funding our student stipends through the joint iGEM funding scheme.
The Society for General Microbiology
A membership organisation for scientists who work in all areas of microbiology. It is the largest learned microbiological society in Europe with a worldwide membership based in universities, industry, hospitals, research institutes and schools. We would like to thank them for co-funding our student stipends through the joint iGEM funding scheme.
The Society for Applied Microbiology (SfAM)
The oldest microbiology society in the UK, serving microbiologists around the world. As the voice of applied microbiology, SfAM works to advance, for the benefit of the public, the science of microbiology in its application to the environment, human and animal health, agriculture, and industry. We would like to thank them for co-funding our student stipends through the joint iGEM funding scheme.
The Society for Experimental Biology
One of five owner societies working together at Charles Darwin House to strengthen the voice of Biology and create a national hub for the subject. It aims to promote, and increase the influence of, Experimental Biology within the scientific community and society. We would like to thank them for co-funding our student stipends through the joint iGEM funding scheme.
Santander
Santander believes that the University plays a fundamental role in the knowledge society. Through its Santander Universities Division, it has collaborated with universities for 18 years, providing support for the development of academic initiatives relating to scholarships; mobility grants; research programmes; university-enterprise relations; new technologies; promotion of the Spanish language, and global projects. Santander Universities and the University of York in America (alumni and friends in the USA), have funded generous Santander International Connections Awards to members of the team. The awards were applied for through the Centre for Global Programmes, and significantly contributed towards the travel and accommodation expenses for the Giant Jamboree.
