The National Centre for Biological Sciences is a research institute located in Bangalore, India. In 2006, a team of graduate students from NCBS was the first from India to participate in iGEM. This year, we are very excited to compete as an all-undergraduate team of six students, from six different colleges located in four cities around India. Now that the summer is over, we hope to take the excitement of iGEM back to our home institutions, and create new teams across India who will participate in future iGEMs. |  |

Modeling our networks
At the very beginning of our six weeks at NCBS, we spent our time designing experimental protocols, and learning how to mathematically model genetic networks. We decided to build models of our most complicated systems, the two stand-alone closed-loops: LuxR in feedback (I726091) and LuxI in feedback (I726101).
