Team:Davidson-Missouri Western
From 2008.igem.org
 Students and faculty from Davidson College and Missouri Western State University are once again collaborating on a project for iGEM. The 2008 team consists of one biology and one mathematics faculty mentor from each institution and students from both disciplines at both institutions, as well as one student from Hampton University and one from Spellman College. It is truly a multidisciplinary and multi-institution collaboration. The picture above was taken July 3 on the steps of the Chambers Building on the Davidson College campus, following a week of intense, side-by-side collaboration. |  |
Students and faculty from Davidson College and Missouri Western State University are once again collaborating on a project for iGEM. The 2008 project, continuing in our theme of bacterial computing, focuses on cell-to-cell communication. We are creating a document authentication system using E. coli. The system is modeled after popular hash functions such as MD5. The user enters a document into the system, and the bacteria compute the hash function value. By comparing the hash function value to the published value for the document, the user can validate the authenticity of the document.
Objective: Create Ideal Hash Function that Bacteria will Compute
