Yiwei Chen

I took the responsibility for constructing the sRNA-dependent competitor with my partner Qin Xiao. Furthermore, our work mainly focused on the characterization of the response curve of competitor in E. coli, and finally contributed to the rational design of the competitor.

Hanchi Lin

Apart from mainly assisting in the molecular clonging of the XOR gate and depicting its function, I also spend time being engaged in taking advantage of some basic biological parts to set up other Boolean synthetic gate. This summer, I am also in charge of purchasing reagent consumables. This conduces to the guarantee of our project’s going on wheels.

Wenhan Luo

My major task is molecular cloning of generators and corresponding receivers for chemical wires such as A-factor. In addition, characterization of some logic gates like AND GATE as well as constructing a three input gate using new signaling molecules are my major contributions in the later stage of our poject. What is more, I am also responsible for the direction and manufacture of the CG animation about invertors.

Jingyi Xi

Mainly in charge of microfluidic device, I created a bilayer microfluidic system for our project, which provides a suitable space for different cells to be spatially separated apart and population controlled, as well as allowing chemical wires to transfer freely from each side to the other. What’s more, I also took part in molecular cloning of TPP regulator, characterization of chemical wire toolbox, and modeling work of XOR gate.
