Colisweeper : an educational use

Modularity

Through our global web-based platform, we extend the possibility of a player to participate in the design process of the Colisweeper circuit. As our circuit involves a sender-receiver module, different combinations of promoters and hydrolases can be chosen by the player. From a displayed chart of indexed sender modules and receiver modules, a certain combination will yield a specific output. Through a use-friendly modeling interface, a defined set of reactions systems are specified for a selected sender-receiver circuit. The feasibility of the circuit in terms of time scales, visible and compatible outputs could be checked. Parameters and the modularity of the system could be explored. This would add a large educational value completely in agreement with the "plug-and-play" idea of gamification.
