Principal Investigators
Prof. Dr. Oliver Ebenhöh - Our primary PI
Quantitative and Theoretical Biology
We thank you for your help, especially with feedback on possible options for a modelling system. You were always willing to do meetings with us and referred us to your colleagues for more advice.
apl. Prof. Dr. Nicole Linka - Our secondary PI
Plant Biochemistry
We thank you for your help and the opportunity to work at the laboratory, as well as your offer to take your time to do troubleshooting for our experiments. You were always willing to answer questions and to help with project-related subjects.
Advice & Support
Dr. Manuel Sommer
Thank you for steering our project in a certain direction, concerning marketing. Moreover, you provided us with some advice on possible scenarios, in which our test is applicable. This helped us a lot with our story-telling.
Florian Kamlah
Thank you for explaining how your polycultures work and how you avoid the spread of pathogens that way.
Robert Bossmann
Thank you for letting us take part in the tractor tour and explaining more about sustainable agriculture. We also appreciate your participation in our panel discussion.
Marius Wetzler
Thank you for seeing the potential in our test and telling us about possible applications for our test.
Annika Baumann
Thank you for confirming our project idea and telling us what a good use would be.
Prof. Dr. Stich
Quantitative Genetics and Genomics of the Plants
Thank you for your feedback regarding our Project and the Outreach you provided us with.
Prof. Dr. Markus Pauly
Plant Cell Biology and Biotechnology
Thank you for the safety introduction and giving us access to your laboratories.
Prof. Dr. Andreas Weber
Plant Biochemistry
Thank you for providing us with a laboratory and the help of your team, who never hesitated to answer our questions. We also appreciate your participation in our panel discussion.
Prof. Dr. Michael Feldbrügge
Microbiology
Thank you for meeting with us and giving us advice on our project.
Prof. Dr. Matias Zurbriggen
Synthetic Biology
Thank you for meeting with us and giving us advice on our project.
Dr. Christian Dumpitak
iGRAD-Office
Thank you for meeting with us and giving us advice on our project.
Prof. Dr. Ilka Maria Axmann
Synthetic Microbiology
Thank you for meeting with us and giving us advice on our project and giving us access to your laboratories.
Integrated Human practices
Dr. Marcus Menger
Thank you for your insights on aptamer technologies, which helped our project reach the next step. Additionally, you looked over our protocols and made us rethink some approaches to this part of the project.
Prof. Dr. Alga Zuccaro
Thank you for your expertise on plant-fungi interactions. Your feedback on target selection helped us determine appropriate proteins.
Prof. Dr. Markus Kollmann & Dr. Christopher Blum
Thank you for showing much information in our project and thus, introducing us to in-silico SELEX. Your knowledge on modelling made us realize how to work better on implementation by rethinking our ideas.
Prof. Dr. Jürgen Zeier
Molecular Ecophysiology of Plants
Thank you for providing us your expertise on the PR1 promoter and offering to give us access to the pathogen P. syringae.
Prof. Dr. Günter Mayer
Thank you for making us rethink our original detection ideas. Without your competency our test would have definitely failed.
Prof. Dr. Meltem Avci-Adali
Thank you for helping us make an informed decision about the use of DNA aptamers and providing us with information on the cost of implementing our project.
Dr. Katja Muders
Thank you for giving us insights on plant screening.
Prof. Dr. Ralf Voegele, Dr. Stefan Thomas & Christian Trautmann
Thank you for providing us with the necessary information on drones and their ability to differentiate between abiotic and biotic stressors. Without your insights we would not have been able to perfect our story-telling.
Organization
CEPLAS
Thank you for supporting our project financially.
Brigitte Haumann
Thank you for providing us with the financial aid that made our project possible.
Dr. Arne Claussen
