Attributions
Here we want to thank everyone who supported us this year and thus helped us make our project come true. Numerous individuals, research groups, departments and companies supported us throughout the entire project and here we want to say thank you for this!
Students
All results presented on our Wiki, including wet lab and software, were achieved solely by the members of the iGEM Team Heidelberg, if not otherwise stated.
Lab Support
DBT-ICT Centre for Energy Biosciences, for hosting us and allowing us to use their fantastic facilities.
V. G. Vaze College of Arts, Science and Commerce for allowing us to use their facilities to nurture plants in order to collect root exudates.
Our Institute, Institute of Chemical Technology, Mumbai, India
Financial Support
This research project could not have reached to its current status and stage without the kind and generous financial support in form of grant and donations from government agency, industry and eminent personalities in the field of chemical technology:
Department of Biotechnology, Ministry of Science and Technology, Government of India.
Prof. G D Yadav, honorable vice-chancellor of Institute of Chemical Technology
Shri. S. M. Mokashi (alumnus of Institute of Chemical Technology)
Aarti Industries Pvt. Ltd.
Other iGEM Teams
Team IISER Mohali for collecting important data regarding farming practices in Punjab
Team IISER Kolkata, Team WashU, Team ECUST, Team UCSD for trying out our BBrickIt softwware and providing valuable suggestions and responses.
Team Tec Monterrey for helping us with the modelling of our circuit.
Before going to actual in vitro studies, we wanted to check how our design of oscillatory circuit works in silico. We had already prepared a stochastic model of the circuit, but we wanted to verify it from experts. We had a discussion with iGEM Tec Monterrey to discuss about the project earlier in this iGEM Season and they helped us out with our modelling. They verified our program and equations for us, and suggested the concepts such as leakage transcription which we missed to take into account. Their help was very valuable in terms of refinement of modelling of our initial circuit design. Even though we were not able to gather the experimental data and decided to go about designing a different circuit (See Design Tab) altogether, conversations with iGEM Tec Monterrey were highly informative and educative for our modelling experience.
Healthy Recipe: iGEM HAFS
Team HAFS is working towards finding optimal solution to diabetes. As a collaboration activity, they expected to collect healthy recipes from all around the world. ICT-Mumbai participated in this activity. We shared the recipe of Beetroot Raita, which is very commonly prepared in Maharashtrian households. The main ingredient, Beetroot, has been found to have many health benefits such as lowering blood sugar, detoxification to name a few. This very easy to make, and very tasty at the same time, recipe was an excellent contribution to the healthy recipe initiative of iGEM team HAFS.
Human Practices: iGEM WashU
Team WashU is working towards engineering yeast to produce a wheat rust resistance protein. As a collaboration activity, they expected to collect responses from variety of wheat farmers across the world. We helped them with relevant data from India. During one of our IHP visits, our team interacted with wheat farmers and collected responses to the specific questions sent by the WashU team. Team also provided the contacts of some farmers in India as part of the collaboration activity, thus helping them to improve their network of farmers and gain information about specifics of damage caused by wheat rust and their preventive measures.
