After a lot of brainstorming, discussion and presentations in self-organized team meetings over the first months, we decided to work on a Microbial Fuel Cell, although this issue is very complex and there is hardly no expertise in this area of ​​research at our university. iGEM-Team Bielefeld 2013 team members are probably the first people at the University of Bielefeld, who built an Microbial Fuel Cell.

All work described on this wiki or on our Partsregistry pages was done by ourselves. We managed the whole project, from planing to financing and the complete lab work by ourselves. Nevertheless, we could not have done all this work without the help, advice and guidance of several people. Hence, special thanks to the following people you can see under Acknowledgements part.



Acknowledgements


We would like to thank all the people who made our project possible, helped and supported us:
