BioBrick Construction:

Student leaders Julian and Jessica lead the way for assembly of our BioBricks. Other student members of the team pitched in and setup some of the reactions, ran some gels, and prepped other materials.

Seawater Experiments:

This was primarily accomplished by Jessica and Wendy, with help from Prof. C and some of the other team members. The water was obtained from the shoreline on campus.

RFP Characterization:

This was executed in part by Dinara, Abraham, and Kate, with quantification by Tiffany. Jessica helped with the transformation of the plasmids into some of the strains.

A special thanks to Dr. Wali Karzai, at Stony Brook University, for providing the delta-tmRNA (ssrA::Kan-R) strain, used in the RFP characterization experiments
