Secret garden

Congratulations! You've found our secret garden! Follow the instructions below and win a great prize at the World jamboree!


  • A video shows that two of our team members are having great fun at our favourite company. Do you know the name of the second member that appears in the video?
  • For one of our models we had to do very extensive computations. To prevent our own computers from overheating and to keep the temperature in our iGEM room at a normal level, we used a supercomputer. Which centre maintains this supercomputer? (Dutch abbreviation)
  • We organised a symposium with a debate, some seminars and 2 iGEM project presentations. An iGEM team came all the way from the Netherlands to present their project. What is the name of their city?

Now put all of these in this URL:https://2013.igem.org/Team:KU_Leuven/(firstname)(abbreviation)(city), (loose the brackets and put everything in lowercase) and follow the very last instruction to get your special jamboree prize!

Modelling

The journal of the computer guys (and girl)can be found here. They've spent a whole summer modelling our systems.

E-β-Farnesene

Here we present the work on the EBF-biobrick, a part of the glucose model, week by week. The contributors are Lukas and Su.

Feed forward loop

The progress that has been made by the subteam working on the 'Feed forward loop', can be found here. The 'Feed Forward Loop' is a part of the oscillator.

Methyl Salicylate

Our team worked on the improvement of the methyl salicylate brick round the clock almost whole summer. The journal can be found here. More information on the MeS biobrick can be found on this page.

qPCR

We spent some time on performing a qPCR, a new and appeasing way to characterise and to find data for our computer model.
