Together with Adair and Matin, we have designed and optimised a modular genetic toolkit for Rhodococcus, in the hope that researchers find it easier to genetically manipulate this potentially model industrial organism. I have done my undergraduate degree in Biochemistry and I am the only one here doing the MSc Biochemistry at Edinburgh! |

I’m studying an MSc in Systems and Synthetic Biology at the University of Edinburgh. I consider myself an iGEM veteran, after participating four times as a student and twice as an instructor…and have been thought to be a masochist by previous Advisers. I enjoy learning new things and being up to date with synthetic biology, and I am currently applying for a position at my favorite company, Ginkgo Bioworks *wink*. |

I did my undergrad and MSc in Biotechnology but now I'm taking new risks and doing my PhD in Synthetic Biology. This is the first time I participate in the iGEM competition and I'm very exited about it! Besides the scientific life I enjoy playing tenis, watching movies, videogames but my biggest passion is Scouting and outdoors. |

With colleagues in the School of Engineering & Electronics, they are developing methods to engineer novel biological systems using modular 'parts' and standardized assembly methods. These can be applied to generate artificial genetic networks, in a process we call 'object-oriented genetics', and also to generate multiple variants of metabolic pathways, in a process they call 'combinatorial genetic engineering'. |
