A big problem biologists encounter is the uncertainty of bonding especially in our design where zinc fingers bind to their sites. Therefore it is important to come up with a model which can calculate the number of cell and zinc finger binding sites required for a given output. This page discusses this and shows a program designed to dictate concentrations for the biologists to use.

Once we  had a method of calculating the concentration of cells needed we had to model the number of cells required to make a certain shape. We also needed to invent a novel approach to creating 2D shapes using cells, this page discusses bonding them to a longer string of DNA to form a pattern.

The previous model of using DNA as a glue could create 3D shapes but would need vast amounts of unique zinc fingers. This wasn't possible with our time frame so we cam up with a model which could create a 3D structure from the minimum amount of unique DNA using tetrahedrons as a base to build from. Cells would then be bound to the outside.<br>

We dcided to get help for some of the modelling and NTNU were kind enough to oblige. This model deals with calculating bonding and binding affinities.<br><br>
