COLLABORATIONS
Overview "It is literally true that you can succeed best and quickest by helping others to succeed." –Napolean Hill We reached out for 3 registered teams this year and achieved mutual benefits in the process of cooperation. As a software team, we use our skills at data processing and front-end visualization to help other teams a lot. Also, they gave lots of practical suggestions on our project from the experimenter's point of view.
SJTU-software We surprisely found that the project of SJTU-software is also relative to metabolic pathway like us from the website of iGEM. So we contacted with their team leader and held a meeting to communicate on our projects and solve problems we met together.
Mutual Benefits Achieved
Our software contains a function of flux balance analysis with Cobra tool box. Surprisely, some team members of SJTU-software have learnt Cobra tool box in their professional classes. Since our software only evaluated the flux distribution and did not look insight into the results, they showed us some cases and taught us how to choose knockout native genes for more efficient heterologous pathways based on the results of flux balance analysis. We added this to our project and made our software more practical. Discussing with SJTU-software and Brainstorming The team of SJTU-software countered some difficulties in visualizing network. During this meetup, we presented beta-version of our software. Since our team also implemented network visualization and master the skill of front-end visualization, we introduced the tutorial of D3.js package which is used for data visualization in detail and help them work it out. Besides the assistant on project, the team member of SJTU-software Yangzhen Wei who has participated in iGEM twice shared us his experiences in Giant Jamboree and the climate, transportation and accommodation in Boston. Thanks for Wei’s reminder of keeping warm and hydrated due to the dry and cold climate in October in Boston!
