Attributions and Contributions

An iGEM project needs a great team to accomplish and it can not be done by one day. Our team is built up of 1 instructor and 7 students (1 student advisor, 1 graduate student, and 5 undergraduate students). During the whole summer of 2011, our team members were working on CRISPR or "E. Curi" cooperatively with our instructor. We would like to thank the USC Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, the David and Dana Dornsife College of Letters, Arts, and Sciences, and the Viterbi School of Engineering for their help and support. We also appreciate the help of all the sponsors and Dr. Brouns from Wageningen University.

Details about our members' work are listed:
