<h1> Modeling</h1>
 
−
 
−
<p>Mathematical models and computer simulations provide a great way to describe the function and operation of BioBrick Parts and Devices. Synthetic Biology is an engineering discipline, and part of engineering is simulation and modeling to determine the behavior of your design before you build it. Designing and simulating can be iterated many times in a computer before moving to the lab. This award is for teams who build a model of their system and use it to inform system design or simulate expected behavior in conjunction with experiments in the wetlab.</p>

<h3> Gold Medal Criterion #3</h3>
 
−
<p>
 
−
Convince the judges that your project's design and/or implementation is based on insight you have gained from modeling. This could be either a new model you develop or the implementation of a model from a previous team. You must thoroughly document your model's contribution to your project on your team's wiki, including assumptions, relevant data, model results, and a clear explanation of your model that anyone can understand.

<br><br>

The model should impact your project design in a meaningful way. Modeling may include, but is not limited to, deterministic, exploratory, molecular dynamic, and stochastic models. Teams may also explore the physical modeling of a single component within a system or utilize mathematical modeling for predicting function of a more complex device.

Modeling
Predicting Outcomes To Direct Our Projects
One of the primary goals of our project, PETNET, was to be informed and deliberate in our approach.
We employed Matlab Simbiology to make a critical decision on which of two biosensors to select in order to detect PET degradation.
We also used modeling to justify the use of a bacterial cellulose domain for increased biodegradation before pursuing further work.
