Our Team
The UW iGEM team is a very interdisciplinary group. Our team members span the four faculties of Science, Mathematics, Engineering, and Applied Health Sciences and include the programs of Biology, Health Studies, Computer Science, Bioinformatics, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, and Mathematical Physics at undergraduate and graduate levels. Even our professor advisors are cross-appointed to two other faculties. Our diverse backgrounds bring together a wide range of skills and ideas to the iGEM project. iGEM is giving us the opportunity to apply the skills learned in our lectures and labs to real life applications in molecular biology and biotechnology.
Our Design
Our project is a light and chemical controlled full adder.
The Inputs
We will be using one light input in the form of red light and two chemical inputs. The red light will be detected by the previously used Cph1/EnvZ fusion protein ([http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I15010 BBa_I15010]).
The chemical inputs to be used are currently being determined.
We have chosen to use light as an input for the reasons that it does not require altering the media, it can be turned on and off rapidly, and it has extremely high resolution and accuracy.
The Logic Gates
CURRENTLY IN PROGRESS
