  • Labwork
  • Presentation
  • Modelling
  • Parts and favourites
  • Wiki

Minutes

  • Looked at videos/animations
  • T-shirts
    • Perfect Printware think that our design (the draft that they have) is virtually impossible to print.
    • We could get them to do a simpler version for more money (£20+ on white shirts).
    • The purple is causing problems.
    • We could change supplier.
    • Spectrum Imaging have said that they cannot do it for us.
    • We need to prepare to do it ourselves (print+iron).
    • A late design decision to go from '09 to just 09.
  • Poster
    • Jess has created a draft poster design which uses Mat's diagram as a central focus to split the poster into sections about each sub-project.
    • Could do a 'stochastic wheel' game.
    • By Friday, each group is to answer:
      • What the sub-project is.
      • Where it fits into the project.
      • Novelty factor.
      • Project modelling.
  • Labwork
    • Hanny has been working on transforming kinA, right size, but can't get into pgfp-rrnb.
    • The kinA biobrick as arrived in pgfp-rrnb.
    • CotC ligated into pMutin4 - Goksel will screen colonies and midi-prep.
  • Presentation
    • Put credits at the end.
    • 1. Title.
    • 2. Overview, aim, design - introduce project.
    • 3. onwards Sub-proejct overviews, etc.
    • All sections more detail.
    • Popmod pages - introduce Grid and reasons.
  • Modelling
    • SBML and CellML models which are not finished, are to be finished!
    • Population model to be finished.
    • Need to find how to integrate as many of the models into the population simulation as possible
      • Could use/affect amounts of nutrients/cadmium, change the rates of import and export, change the chance of sequestering, sporulating and germinating.
  • Parts Registry
    • sspb
    • ara
    • sspb + ara
    • S.S
  • CotC
    • kinA
    • AND

    • New team photos.
    • Rollover images.
