We are a group of biologists, biotechnologists, bioengineers and bioinformaticians. This project has been done by us students, from the definition of problem statement to designing and conducting experiments, modeling and designing the wiki . Although the work was shared, from the beginning we assigned each group member with the responsibility for a particular task. Daniel was responsible for the lab, Maximilian for the sponsoring and the chip design, Nadine for the administrative work, Stefanie for Human Practice and the lab practical work; Claude for the Wiki and for the diffusion model, Elise for the model, Sumana for the updates on iGEM website and for model simulations.

James Collins and Jarred Callura really quickly and kindly replied to our emails with questions about the riboregulators they presented in the paper [http://www.pnas.org/content/109/15/5850.abstract ''Genetic switchboard for synthetic biology applications'', PNAS, 2012].
