| A major part of the project consisted of modelling each module. This enabled us to decide which ideas we should implement. Look at the Fast Response page for a great example of how modelling has made a major impact on our design! | |

Our novel concept of amplifying our output by incorporating enzymes raised some important questions that needed to be answered:
In order to answer these questions, we would have to model this system. The results of the computer models would enable us to decide which design would be the most efficient one. This design would then be put forward to be built in labs.
