The Northeastern iGEM Team is grateful to the following people and
 +
organizations who have supported and assisted us with our research project
 +
throughout the course of this season.

<h3>Professor Carolyn Lee-Parsons</h3>
 +
<p>
 +
Carolyn W.T. Lee-Parsons is an Associate Professor at Northeastern University,
 +
jointly appointed between the departments of Chemical Engineering and
 +
Chemistry/Chemical Biology. Her research interests involve engineering
 +
the metabolism and regulation of natural products from cultures of medicinal
 +
plants and biofuels from microalgae to improve the supply of critical
 +
pharmaceutical compounds and the productivity of biofuels.
 +
</p>
  
 +
<h3>Professor Veronica Godoy-Carter</h3>
 +
<p>
 +
Veronica Godoy-Carter is an Associate Professor at Northeastern University.
 +
Her research group is interested in studying a multiple protein complex formed
 +
by components involved in important DNA transactions when cells are exposed
 +
to DNA damage. This is a condition that induces the expression of error-prone
 +
DNA polymerases, the activity of which might lead to mutations.
 +
Their long-term goal is to learn about the mechanisms that regulate the
 +
activity of error-prone Y family DNA polymerases. They use bacteria as a model
 +
system and especially Escherichia coli. Due to its relative simplicity,
 +
studying basic processes in bacteria will render mechanistic insights that
 +
would be difficult to attain directly in more complex systems.
 +

20kB of gBlocks® Gene Fragments. Without this generous gift much of our

work would not have been possible.

<h3><a href="http://www.northeastern.edu/cos/biology/" target="_blank">Northeastern University Department of Biology</a></h3>

<p>
 +
Thank you to the Northeastern Department of Biology, in particular Adrian Gilbert,
 +
Frauke Argyros, and Corissa Mantooth for helping to provide a lab space to work
 +
in and materials to work with. This project couldn’t have moved forward without
 +
the patience and effort that was put in to make this happen.
