Project design

    Our project has been designed with the contributed efforts of our whole team. We have identified a very real problem that we have found a practical and beneficial answer to. The project that we have designed is to create nanowire from E.coli

Team

  • Raneem AlJaghoub

    Raneem was part of the outreach team, developing the Policies and Practices part of our project. She interviewed international politicians and developed a questionnaire on synthetic biology. Raneem also contributed in the realization and improvement of the wiki as well as constructing the parameters list for the modelling and designing the project. Raneem was a presenter at the Boston Jamboree.

  • James Aston

    James developed the model of our system; he went the extra mile and rendered the equations into a code and afterwards into a 3D animation of our system. James also created the wiki skeleton and improved it during the competition. He collaborated the UNITN iGEM team by helping to create a model for their system. He also designed the project. James was a presenter at the Boston Jamboree.

  • Anna Beltrami

    Anna was part of the wet lab team. In particular, she performed transformations, produced competent cells and helped capture pictures of the control samples with the Atomic Force Microscope. Anna constructed the organisational infrastructure of the team. She managed the social network channels and the overall communications with other teams, liasing collaborations. She helped review the wiki and she designed the project. Anna was a presenter at the Boston Jamboree.

  • Moyra Chikomo

    Moyra was part of the outreach team, developing the Policies and Practices part of our project. She wrote post notes and helped in the creation of a questionnaire on synthetic biology sent to politicians and the general public. She designed and created a GUI (graphic used interface) for our projects as well as designing our banner.

  • Richard Crane

    Richard was part of the wet lab team. In particular, he took part in most of the Lab work. His main contribution lies specifically in the imaging of the congo red and heme plates for the validation part of our project. He has made most agarose gels within the team.

  • Rob Middlewick

    Rob was involved in lab work where he did mostly transformations as well as helping other members of the team with various protocol. He has played a key part in the scientific writing of our project, this included the project description and the description of our BioBricks.

  • Katarina Pisani

    Kat being part of the main lab team was involved in all the wet lab aspects of our project. She has carried out ligations, PCR reactions and run diagnostic gels as well as much more. She has also presented at our outreach events and contributed to our final project design.

  • Jonathan Pope

    Jonathan was also responsible for creating our posters and Envirowire logo. He has presented at our outreach events and has also assisted the lab team. He has designed our presentations and helped with the scientific and wiki writing. He has also held the main wet lab team in some protocol including carrying out diagnostic Congo red plating and transformations. Jonathan is also presenting at the Boston Jamboree.

  • Natalie Sloan

    Natalie took part in designing and writing the wiki and creating the Kent iGEM logo. She is also part of the main wet lab team where she has carried out mini-preps, ligations and transformations as well as producing competent cells. Natalie has also helped design the project and contributed to scientific writing.

  • Suparna Thakali

    Suparna contributed mainly to the wet lab team where she took part in carrying out Gibson assembly and ligation reactions. She contributed to the wiki page as well as project design and writing.

  • Alice Tomlinson

    Alice was involved in organising the outreach aspect of our project such as gathering MPs opinion on synthetic biology and its possible applications in our society. She also conducted interviews and presented our project to other teams at our meet-ups. The majority of her time has been spent in the lab carrying out Gibson assembly and diagnostics tests.
