We each worked on out own aspect of the project by working with a specific gene that would contribute to the overall goal.

Qimong Gao: esp

Nora Kostow: DspB

Alex Aaring: rsaA C-terminal

We will work as a group to test the expression of the proteins and the affect our engineered C. crescentus has on biofilm.

Where we're from

IOWA!
