| - | <h1>Judging Criteria</h1> | + | <h1>Can Models Really Match Experiments?</h1> |
| - | This year, our goal was to complete the requirements necessary for the rewarding of a gold medal. The basic list of these criteria[https://2009.igem.org/Judging/Judging_Criteria] are expanded upon below, with helpful reference links to parts of our website detailing how and when we accomplished each objective. | + | This year we combined wet lab experiments with simulations to build simple logical AND gates. Since the primary focus is on simulations, the goal was to determine how close simulations can come to experiments. Here is a figure that summarizes the results. |
| - | <h2>Bronze Medal</h2>
| + | |
| - | The requirements to earn a Bronze Medal are:
| + | |
| - | <ol>
| + | |
| - | <li>'''Register the team''' - Check!</li>
| + | |
| - | <li>'''Successfully complete and submit a Project Summary form''' - ?Yiannis?</li>
| + | |
| - | <li>'''Create and share a Description of the team's project via the iGEM wiki''' - You're at the Wiki right now! Visit the [[Team:Minnesota/Project|Project]] page for more detail about our project.</li>
| + | |
| - | <li>'''Present a Poster and Talk at the iGEM Jamboree''' - We'll see you in November!</li>
| + | |
| - | <li>'''Enter information detailing at least one new standard BioBrick Part or Device in the Registry of Parts''' - ?which, where on website?</li>
| + | |
| - | <li>'''Submit DNA for at least one new BioBrick Part or Device to the Registry of Parts''' - ?mention submittal?</li>
| + | |
| - | </ol>
| + | |
| - | <h2>Silver Medal</h2>
| + | |
| - | The requirements to earn a Silver Medal, in addition to the Bronze Medal requirements, are:
| + | |
| - | <ol>
| + | |
| - | <li>'''Demonstrate that at least one new BioBrick Part or Device of your own design and construction works as expected''' - ?Experimental Results, Modeling Results?</li>
| + | |
| - | <li>'''Characterize the operation of at least one new BioBrick Part or Device and enter this information on the Parts or Device page via the Registry of Parts''' - ?Our own characterization?</li>
| + | |
| - | </ol>
| + | |
| - | <h2>Gold Medal</h2>
| + | |
| - | The requirements to earn a Gold Medal, in addition to the Silver Medal requirements, are any one OR more of the following:
| + | |
| - | <ol>
| + | |
| - | <li>'''Characterize or improve an existing BioBrick Part or Device and enter this information back on the Registry''' - Since aTc and IPTG regulate our AND gate, we decided to find existing parts regulated by the same. We [[Team:Minnesota/Parts_Characterization#Introduction|characterized]] 2 promoters included with the 2009 iGEM kit ([http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I14032 I14032], [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_J13002 J13002]) in terms of transfer function and stability. We gratefully acknowledge MIT's iGEM 2004 team for their pioneering work in characterizing [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_F2620 BBa_F2620], and hope that our work continues to maintain the high standard for characterization of parts.</li>

| + | |
| - | <li>'''Develop and document a new technical standard that supports the ''(i) design of BioBrick Parts or Devices'', or (ii) construction of BioBrick Parts or Devices, or (iii) characterization of BioBrick Parts or Devices, or ''(iv) analysis, modeling, and simulation of BioBrick Parts or Devices, or (v) sharing BioBrick Parts or Devices, either via physical DNA or as information via the internet.''''' - The [https://2009.igem.org/Team:Berkeley_Software/Notebook 2009 Berkeley Software team] is developing a forward engineering DNA assembly language called [http://sourceforge.net/projects/eugene/ Eugene].
