Team:Glasgow/Attributions

Attributions and Thanks

While the project was most certainly a team effort, it is also important to acknowledge the individuals in the team. Here's a breakdown of what we all got up to.

Undergraduate Students

Wet Lab
Amy Ferguson: Created, along with Lydia, the “Wilkins” mascot for the team.
Documentation of the project in notebooks, including the weekly report, plasmids page etc.
GvpA/GvpC constructs with various different promoters and testing their ability to float.
Made the J23100/GFP and did a comparison of the efficiency of the various fluorescent things.

Jake Casson: Social media guru, informing the world of our cake-based exploits via Twitter.
Designed the switch (and many other oligos), and also made the integrase Biobrick.

Martin Campbell: Modified the low copy number vector (psc101) by extracting unneeded stuff and replaced with an iGEM MCS, then ligated in RFP/GFP switch.
Transformed the switch and our integrase and performed in vivo switching.
Designed lots of oligos.

Beth Greig: Did a lot of work on the human practices side of things, and produced the majority of the material for the human practices page.
Documented our Biobricks for the registry.

Jacob Roberts: Optimised and tested the integrase biobrick.

Gemma McLelland: Optimised and tested the integrase biobrick.

Gintarė Sendžikaitė:

Lydia Alldred: Created, along with Amy, the “Wilkins” mascot for the team, and drew him in the various poses (poster comic strip, logo etc).

Dry Lab
Aimee Bias: Modelling, measurements and wiki page.
Risk assessments, both for the wet and dry lab and our science centre stalls.

Robbie Evans: Modelling, measurements and wiki page.

Supervisors and additional support

Of course, we cannot take all the credit! A massive thank you to all our advisors, sponsors, and supporters. Without these guys, we would have been totally lost. No, really.
