Main conclusion: we keep S2


Core system does not oscillate. How can we enhance it?

We need a 'delay' so we can: 1 add more genes to the circuit 2 use quorum sensing (qs)

we chose quorum sensing that can allowed both 'delay' and population synchonization. two ways to add it: S4 and S2.

We first analyse S4 due to modularity.

Inspired from Garcia-Ojalvo: oscillating repressilator + oscillating qs module = synchronized oscillations

we tried s4:

damped oscillating core system + oscillating qs module = damped oscillations.

We continue with S2:

S0 module in S4 gived us insides in parameters analysis for S2.

given analysis results we keep S2.
