The 2019 iGEM team project of Hubei University of Technology is mainly composed of experts in synthetic biology and molecular biology, who lead students from the school of Bioengineering and Food Science, Art Design, Mechanical Engineering, and the School of Computer Science. Our project is dependent upon everyone's efforts from the beginning to the end, and it’s designed to reduce nickel ion contamination in the environment.

On this page you can find everyone who contributed to the project.

We would like to thank all of the consultants who have assisted us throughout this project. We would also like to thank all the other people who helped us in many ways with this project, whether it was to provide us with valuable advice, DNA, bacterial and fungal strains, and other valuable suggestions. These contributions helped us enormously.
