They gave in-depth presentations on nitric oxide and how to work with it. Dan Tromans is a PhD student based at the UEA and the John Innes Centre in Norwich.
The experience and advice of all of these PhD students has proven invaluable to our own project.
[http://www.star107.co.uk/ STAR Radio 107.9/1 FM] allowed us interview time on their radio show to discuss the iGEM competition, synthetic biology, and the future applications of this branch of science. They gave us a lengthy slot on the show and helped us promote the competition and synthetic biology as a whole.
[http://www.wellcome.ac.uk/ The Wellcome Trust] kindly provided us with stipends that have allowed the team to work on the project for the ten week period allotted.
The UEA Annual Fund provided us with funds to cover some of the costs assoicated with participating in the iGEM competition. In particular, funds were provided for essential consumables, without which the lab work performed could not have been performed.
[http://www.uea.ac.uk/bio/eande/eandeclub The UEA Enterprise and Engagement Club], the [http://www.uea.ac.uk/bio School of Biological Sciences at UEA] and the John & Pamela Salter Trust Fund were able to provide vital funding towards travel expenses, lab consumables and other necessities for the project.
