Glasgow iGEM 2016
Attributions

Undergraduate Students

  • Katy Baker: Worked on transforming S. thermophilus with BioBrick constructs. Developed Miniprep protocol for purifying plasmid DNA from S. thermophilus. Demonstrated at Glasgow Science Centre. Social media boss.
  • Pinja Hartikainen: Created crtEBIY BioBrick compatible construct through a series of gene ligations. Presented at London teams meetup at Westminster.
  • Catriona Watson: Designed RNA extraction experiments for transcriptomics collaboration with Glasgow Polyomics. Demonstrated at Glasgow Science Centre. Created the final design for our mascot, Beta.
  • Liam Pollock: Created crtEBIY BioBrick compatible construct. Quantified levels of beta-carotene in E. coli with various native S. thermophilus promoters. Demonstrated at Glasgow Science Centre.
  • Matej Vucak: Created and quantified BioBrick constructs for use with S. thermophilus. Carried out Interlab measurements and submission.
  • Deanna van Spall: Isolated the antitoxin Epsilon for potential self-inactivation mechanism. Demonstrated at Glasgow Science Centre.
  • Lindsey McKerrell: Designed and created an accessible piece of hardware for solar pasteurisation.
  • Simone Marcigaglia: Designed and created an accessible piece of hardware for solar pasteurisation. Demonstrated at Glasgow Science Centre.
  • Fergus O’Brien: Designed and created an accessible piece of hardware for solar pasteurisation. Presented at London teams meetup at Westminster. Demonstrated at Glasgow Science Centre.
  • Oliver Hawes: Our tech guy. Wiki coding and design.

Supervisors/Advisors

  • Dr Julien Reboud (Lord Kelvin Adam Smith Fellow in Synthetic Biology, Biomedical Engineering, University of Glasgow) Supervisor: Our primary advisor - provided plate reader for fluorescence measurements, gave us useful presentation feedback, and bought us pizza that one time.
  • Dr Sean Colloms (Lecturer in Synthetic Biology, Institute of Molecular Cell and Systems Biology, University of Glasgow) Supervisor: Our secondary supervisor - Provided advice about molecular biology.
  • James Provan - Advisor : Demonstrated lab techniques (multiple times). Showed incredible patience.
  • Mhairi Davidson - Advisor: Provided support with Exeter collaboration, general lab techniques, and experimental planning.
  • Dr Steph Holt: Helped with electroporating S. thermophilus when things were looking impossible.

Engineering Support

  • Ewan Russell: for 3D printing our magnificent valve.
  • Dr Andrew Glidle: for 3D printing our more magnificent valve 2.0.
  • Rankine Building Engineering Department: Thanks for the electronics!

General Support

  • Everyone in the Bower Building, University of Glasgow, for their support over the summer.
  • Thanks to the Scottish weather for providing us with one day of sun so we could test our initial solar concentrator.
  • Thanks to Lily Roberts for designing our modified iGEM logo!

Human Practice Support

  • Dr John Walls (Research Associate, School of Interdisciplinary Studies, University of Glasgow) Advised on public interest and social sciences
  • Jamie Gallagher (Public Engagement Officer, Research Strategy and Innovation Office, University of Glasgow) Outreach help and advice
  • Melanie Jimenez: Thanks for our super cute video for the Science centre.
  • Glasgow Science Centre, for allowing us to participate in the Meet the Experts event.

Project Support

  • Glasgow Polyomics - Performed ten RNAseq experiments in order to distinguish differential gene expression in S. thermophilus based on casein exposure.
  • Maud Flechard and Pascal Hols: Gifted us with S. thermophilus LMD-9 strain, multiple plasmids, and protocols for working with S. thermophilus
  • iGEM Team Exeter - for providing us with an alternative Kill Switch for our yogurt.
  • Thanks to Zuhair Elgaid, our summer intern, for helping with initial research.
