Introduction

A regular reporter (for example, fluorescent proteins or pigment) can only detect a narrow range of concentration of input signals, (Figure 1) because they mainly possess a Hill-function type dose-response curve. The linear proportion of such a dose-response curve is relatively narrow，causing it sensitive to only a narrow range of input intensity. Thus the regular reporters are not proper devices for quantitative measurement. In order to design a quantitative, economical and convenient aromatics detector, we decided to build a band pass filter.

Achievements

We are very proud of our many achievements from this summer. Here is a compilation of our feats!
1. We collaborated with a lab and helped 5 other iGEM teams by sharing DNA materials, characterizing their parts and modeling! (for more details Click Here)
2. We outlined in detail a new approach of human pratice called "Model iGEM". It's a small jamboree for several frequently communicating teams. (for more details Click Here)
3. We presented all fresh iGEMers with a collection and praise of historic iGEM projects to share and learn from each other! (for more details Click Here)
4. We submitted 45 high quality and well-characterized standard biobricks! (for more details Click Here)
5. We improved a previous part, which is the combination of Salicylic acid inducible promoter pSal and its transcriptional regulator NahR: Bba_J61051 The improved part is Bba_K1031610
6. We successfully implemented spatiotemporal control of cellular behavior, such as high-resolution 2D and 3D bio-printing using dim light, and even utilizing the luminescence of an iPad! Click Here and Here.
7. We successfully implemented cell-cell communication using bioluminescence for the very first time in synthetic biology! Here.
Therefore, we believe that we deserve a Gold Medal Prize.
