HEIST Simulator - Acknowledgement

Acknowledgement

We would like to acknowledge our mentors, Mr. Zachary Haiman and Dr. Bernhard Ø Palsson for giving us the opportunity to work on this project, along with their support and mentorship, advice and technical expertise. This project would not have been table to come to life without their help and support. In addition, we would like to acknowledge affiliates of UCSD, Dr. Colton Lloyd who created the original COBRA model that was the basis of our project, and Dr. Daniel Zielinski who helped with the creation of the enzyme modules, and Dr. Nathan Lewis who gave us invaluable information and advice about our project, all of whom we have had the pleasure of interviewing. In addition, we would also like to acknowledge Dr. Nikolaus Berndt from the Institute of Biochemistry of the Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin, whose paper titled “HEPATOKIN1 is a biochemistry-based model of liver metabolism for applications in medicine and pharmacology” was invaluable in our model construction, and who gave us invaluable advice about out liver model.
