Collaborations
Collaboration with Arizona State University
The ASU team developed a cloning strategy to help our team assemble our multigene sensing plasmid. This included designing primers for each of our transcriptional units in order to do digests and ligations using Type 1 enzymes. The ASU team also sent us an aliquot of their lab’s pET28 to use as the backbone for the multigene sensing assembly. 
In return, our team helped out the ASU team by reading over their wiki and presentation.
Designed through Collaboration with ASU
Collaboration with University of Washington
The UoWashington team gave us general advice concerning our project and proofread our wiki pages and presentation. The UoWashington team also helped us with our presentation; we held a skype session where we presented our presentation to them over skype and they critiqued it and gave us advice.
In return, our team helped them out with their survey on GMOs and bioethics.
Collaboration with High School Teams
We were part of a high school group chat over Twitter whose purpose was to serve as a forum where high school teams could exchange advice and help one another.
