pLaqUe Out!
The NTU iGEM '09 Team has identified atherosclerosis as the problem we would like to tackle.
Atherosclerosis is one of the major diseases affecting the world. In our research, we found the numbers were staggering, and growing. We also found that early diagnosis was rare, medications were not ideal and surgeries were a commonly used last resort.
We asked ourselves what if we could design a biological system to identify plaque sites and reduce the plaque volume in vivo?
How we did it
Breakdown of system into sub-systems and mention the main input and outputs from each.
Visualizing the System
A picture or animation of our system's mechanism in vivo.
