.:: Introduction ::.
The Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) Zurich is participating for the 3rd year, at the International Geneticaly Engineered Machines (iGEM) Competition. Our combined team of Biologists and Engineers has undertaken the task of "Educating E. Coli" (see Fig. 1). After elaborating ( :) ) on the definition of learning, we drew ideas from the field of logic design, and we are trying to create E. Coli with the ability to recognize the chemicals that they are exposed to, based on a previous training phase.
This page presents the basic ideas of our project. In the Biology Perspective, you can find details on the biological system that we are trying to implement, the parts it consists of, and our biological experiments. In the Engineering Perspective, you can find the governing equations of our biological system, its modeling, and the simulations that we have carried out. In Meet the Team, you can find more information concerning the member of the ETH Zurich team. In Team Notes, you can find notes taken during the preparation process, to facilitate the communication between the team members. Lastly, in Pictures!, you can find our ETH Zurich preparation gallery :).
