Achievements
We have:
- Designed the first photosynthetically powered biolamp, an environmentally friendly lamp that uses light as energy source and living cells as light emissor.
- '''Developed an integrative [https://2009.igem.org/Team:Valencia/Hardware experimental system]''' to control the LECs, which is able to '''apply a precise voltage (between 0V-24V) during a precise period of time (with intervals as small as 20 ms.)''' controlled by a computer. The [https://2009.igem.org/Team:Valencia/Hardware experimental device] was integrated with a continuous luminometer in order to measure the light emission as a function of these parameters.
- [https://2009.igem.org/Team:Valencia/WetLab/YeastTeam/Results '''Precisely characterized the LEC'''], studying the factors that can be tuned (like voltage and shock time) and proving in a [https://2009.igem.org/Team:Valencia/Parts/Characterization wide range of experiments] that '''aequorin-engineered yeast can be stimulated with electric current'''. From these works we have established that '''the refreshing time of our LEC is of about 10 seconds''' placing lots of importance on [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K222000 our thoroughfully detailed BioBrick] regarding future works.
- Built [https://2009.igem.org/Team:Valencia/OurModel '''a model] to describe the calcium dynamics in yeast''', and its response to electrical stimuli. The model demonstrate its capability to '''describe the performed experiments and and allows [https://2009.igem.org/Team:Valencia/Simulations the determination of critical parameters'''] of the process like membrane impendancy or conductance. Additionally, [https://2009.igem.org/Team:Valencia/StochasticApproach '''a stochastic model'''] was developed in order to study posible aleatory process that could have an influence in the performance of the system.
- Developed '''an impressive [https://2009.igem.org/Team:Valencia/Human Human Practices] part''' of the project. Resulting in the publication of the book [https://2009.igem.org/Team:Valencia/Human '''Sins, Ethics and Biology''']. Result of the review of more than 50 Human Practices articles and the interview to experts.
- Achieved '''[https://2009.igem.org/Team:Valencia/Human the largest survey] ever made on Synthetic Biology''', which is a good occasion to thank each single contributor to the survey, specially those who described '''[https://2009.igem.org/Team:Valencia/Definitions their definition of Synthetic Biology]'''.
- Helped TUDelft and NTU-Singapore whith their respectives surveys, as well as helped Paris Team answering their questions about their iPhone application.
