Overview

Several months of brainstorming, discussions and literature search as well as meetings with different faculty members from the Technical University of Denmark resulted in a joint decision on working on the Spinach project. The initial idea about measuring promoter strengths in absolute terms originates from one of our team members, Kristian Jensen, and associate professor Chris Workman hinted us about the spinach concept. The obvious applicability of the project and huge potential has been a main driving force for all of us, together with our fascination of XX (something with green or spinach). The formation of our team was facilitated by Associate Professor Chris Workman, but the project management, planning, fundraising as well as the designs, work described on this wiki, our results and our submitted BioBricks was done by ourselves. Nevertheless, we owe a thank to several people for constructive feedback, advice, guidance and for encouraging our work.

Students

Instructors and Advisors

Initially we divided the team into different subgroups created with regard to our competences at that time and personal intentions for gaining new skills. Our contributions therefore very much reflect which subgroups we have been in. Our instructors and advisors have provided constructive feedback and advice, when needed.

Laboratories

Most of our experiments were carried out at Center for Biological Sequence Analysis (CBS) at DTU Systems Biology located at the Technical University of Denmark. Here we were invited to use their machines to perform our molecular work and measurements

Part of the work was carried out at XXX and XXX at DTU Systems Biology. In xxx we used the fluorescence microscop to investigate our cultures.
