Attributions
Department of Energy, Environmental, and Chemical Engineering (EECE) Faculty
Dr. Janie Brennan, our main advisor, put the team together and handled our registration this year. When we first started, she guided us through the process of brainstorming and developing our project. Dr. Brennan also reviewed cloning, PCR, and other lab procedures with us.
Dr. Himadri Pakrasi met with Alex at the beginning of the summer to discuss our project, giving him a few pointers on the UV radiation damage resistance mechanisms already present in cyanobacteria. Dr. Pakrasi also suggested several routes we could take our project, one being to compare different genes that combat UV-induced DNA damage.
Zhang Lab Graduate Students
Eugene Kim oversaw our work in the lab and taught us how to prepare LB media, LB agar, and antibiotic plates. He guided us through PCR and transformation at the beginning of the summer, providing us protocols for both processes, and he taught us how to use SnapGene to design primers and order DNA sequences. As we performed the Interlab study, Eugene also taught us how to operate the Zhang Lab's Tecan Infinite M200 Pro plate reader.
The 2016 WashU iGEM Team
Drew Ells and Zach Glick both gave us advice on developing our project and planning out our work for the summer. We also derived some of the code for the lab notebook section of the wiki from Zach's work in the 2016 team's wiki. As a result, our wiki's lab notebook style is similar to that of the 2016 team.
