We are the first team from the University of East Anglia, which is working in collaboration with the John Innes Centre, to enter the iGEM competition. We are a group of nine students, eight of us are studying disciplines in Biology and we also have a lone chemist. We have been based at the John Innes Centre, using the facilities to achieve our project aim:
The evolution of synthetic biology; The introduction of new photosynthetic eukaryotes as model organisms.
The organisms we chose to introduce were Physcomitrella patens and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii which have factfiles and our reasons for picking them in the project tab above.
