Team:Alberta

Welcome to the Team Alberta website! Our project, The Littlest MapMaker, is all about creating biological computers; training E. coli to solve tough mathematical puzzles, like the travelling salesman problem.

• Curious about the possibilities of biocomputing? Need of a crash course on travelling salesman problems? Visit our background page for more information on the real-world applications of our project.


• Want to get straight to the details of what Team Alberta has been working on this summer? Read up in the overview and results pages to see what we've achieved.
