Team:METU-BIN Ankara

We are advising the METU-BIN Team with Assist.Prof.Dr. Tolga CAN and we will competing at the iGEM 2011 for the software category.

İnternationally Genetic Engineered Machines (iGEM) competition where teams design and build their own biological systems and opeate them in living cells from the parts in the Registry of BioBricks or new ones they have generated. As a software team we are investigating the needs of molecular biologists and developing bioinformatics approaches to help the wet lab scientist work more efficiently and build new hypothesis on the available bioparts in the iGEM registry.

METU_TURKEY_SOFTWARE team advised by Tolga CAN and Ömer NEBİLOĞLU from Computer Engineering Department and Yeşim AYDIN SON from Informatics Institute has won a silver medal at iGEM 2010 for the BioGUIDE software application they have developed during Summer 2010.

Congragulations to the team members Hassan Salehe Matar (CENG), Cihan Taştan (GENE), Yener Tuncel (BIN), Saygın Karaaslan (BIO), Burak Yılmaz (BME), Muhammed Akif Ağca (CEIT), Muhammad Fakhry Syauqy (CEIT), Ayub Rokhman Wakhid (CEIT) who have worked hard on the project and sucessfully presented it at MIT, Boston, USA in November 2010.
