The University of Sydney iGEM team is forever indebted to numerous people for their contribution, support, and wisdom in our project.


First and foremost, we must thank our wonderful supervisor, [http://sydney.edu.au/science/people/nicholas.coleman.php Dr Nicholas Coleman] for his tireless advice and guidance. From answering hundreds of emails at all hours of the night to keeping calm and carrying on when eight continuous PCRs failed, his support and direction has been phenomenal. Additionally, as the only Sydney academic actively engaged with the iGEM competition, without his supervision it is likely the Sydney iGEM team would have degraded after the first year. For this, all Sydney iGEMers - past, present and future are grateful.


A special thank you to Elissa Liew who helped our team navigate the lab and for always keeping one eye on us to ensure we did not make any mistakes.


To all past Sydney iGEMers from 2013 and 2014 for their advice and assurance when things went wrong. In particular to Robbie Oppenheimer, the founder of iGEM at Sydney University for his help with Strange Nature and for continuing to promote iGEM across Australia. Additionally, to Abi and Andy from the 2014 team for organising our team and sharing a lab bench.


Thanks to Dr Sandro Ataide and Professor Joel Mackay for your expert advice on modelling.


In terms of financial support, thank you to [http://sydney.edu.au/science/index.shtml Profressor Trevor Hambley] (Dean of the Faculty of Science), [http://sydney.edu.au/science/molecular_bioscience/ Professor Ian Campbell] (Head of the School of Molecular Bioscience), and the [http://sydney.edu.au/research/about/ Deputy Vice-Chancellor for Research]. Additionally, thank you to [http://www.diagnostictechnology.com.au/ Diagnostic Technology] and New England Biolabsfor providing essential equipment.
