MODEL 1: Secretion and Production of Monoterpenes in Yeast
OBJECTIVE: To develop a model to assay the secretion and production of monoterpenes in yeast.
MODEL 2: Dynamics of Mountain Pine Beetle Populations in British Columbia
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.
