| - | This modeling component of our project was to simulate the biochemical pathways for our genetically engineered yeasts. Simulations were programmed using the SimBiology Toolkit in MATLAB. Every yeast cell is designed to produce one specific monoterpene in mass, and others monterpenes in small amounts. Each simulation is based on the rate at which transcription, translation and monoterpene production occur. Our project is based on research that has been conducted in 2011 so some variables will need to be experimentally determined in the future to make more accurate simulations

| - | == '''MODEL 2: Dynamics of Mountain Pine Beetle Populations in British Columbia''' == | + | |
| - | <p></p>
| + | |
| - | OBJECTIVE: To construct a mathematical model that can predict the dynamics of the mountain pine beetle populations in B.C. under the influence of our synthetic product. This model can be coupled with the strategic planning for future conservation initiatives.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | We will show how the pine beetle is predicted to spread in British Columbia, according to the government of British Columbia, and compare that to how we predict our modified yeasts may slow down the spread of the pine beetle.
