We accomplished many things this summer...
- Formed and registered the team.
- Obtained a Summer Undergraduate Research Grant (SURG)
- Submitted 35 parts to the Registry
- Documented new photosensitizers, an estrogen biosensor and a robust T7 RNA Polymerase reporter system
- Validated a new photosensitizer and improved another
- Improved the characterization of fluorescent proteins and a T7 RNA Polymerase reporter system
- Modeled our sensor and the influence of estrogen on a fish population
We collaborated extensively:
