Achievements
Project Achievements
- Confirmed the biological theory behind a mathematical model of signal processing
- Designed novel experimental protocols for the characterization of dynamic circuits.
- Implemented 3G Assembly, a new method of DNA Assembly that enables the construction of multi-transcriptional unit circuits in a single day.
Modeling Achievements
- Created an abstract model of an IFFL and determined that IFFLs are capable of performing as temporal distinguishers.
- Created a mathematical model of our temperature controlled decoding system and determined that it functions effectively as a decoder, being far more effective than a naive (non IFFL system)
- Determined that our decoding circuit is robust to noisy inputs.
- Investigated the impact of degradation strength on the decoding circuit, finding that tuning of degradation rates can further improve the decoding ability of the system.
