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!

In this part we describe the design of an oscillator that could be useful in biological networks. We designed one ourselves since we have very specific demands and look forward to the challenge. We even tried to create a system that creates synchronised oscillations without depending heavily on the components used. So our proposal oscillates inherently, and depends only slightly on the parameters of the components used. In this text, we start with an explanation of how this oscillating model fits within the framework of our project. Second, we explain several necessities to obtain a synchronised oscillator, and how we managed to incorporate those within our network. For the thorough study of the network and to see what has been achieved in the lab, we refer to the modelling page and the wetlab page respectively.
