External Support

We were able to do a lot, but not everything. The external support we received was undoubtedly an added value for the team and facilitated a lot in completing important tasks in the project. Thus, the team is eternally thankful for the effort the following people put into helping the team:

  • Louise Dynes, for helping us from day one with the various task including outreach, team organization, fund management, finding sponsorship and travel.

  • Ed Bolts lab, for providing us with dCas9 for the final stages of our lab work.

  • Groningen iGEM Team, for accepting to collaborate with us by testing and providing results from the revival of our freeze-dried cells.

  • Sheffield iGEM Team, for accepting to collaborate with us by testing and providing results from the revival of our freeze-dried cells.

  • Valdemar Marques, for helping with the 3D modelling of our key transport device.

  • Yazid Lakhdar, for providing support and advice on our 3D model as well as on the prices of materials.

  • Jason Young, for helping with the actual 3D printing.

  • Sarah, for providing support with freeze drying.

  • Euridice Real, for helping us with the team pictures.
