Name: Carol Shiu
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the Pphlf group.
The female half of the lovebird pair in our team. As a team member, she works closely with her team and perform each and every task perfectly, from her lab duties to the seminar organised for secondary school students. She is all the more efficient when she gets paired up with Eric, the other lovebird. Each and every gesture and posture that she makes resembles much that of a typical senhora, so elegant and graceful.

Name: Danson Shek Chun Loi
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
A lazy gentleman. He is nice in that he would sometimes help you before you even ask for it with simple things like getting a glass of water or carrying your luggage. Otherwise, he’s like a sloth and can spend the whole day in bed if he isn’t required elsewhere. Despite that, he is stick thin and quite possibly the lightest member in the whole team. He is a dedicated member of our team, often sacrificing sleep and food to work on our wiki page.

Name: Eric Chung Ting Tsoi
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
Being one of the lovebirds in our lab, he never hesitates to showcase his fondness and tenderness towards the other lovebird. Although it feels like they turn all of us into light bulbs (Cantonese slang for playing gooseberry) which gives us goose bumps sometimes, we light bulbs are still dimmer than the halo surrounding them. Nonetheless, he is an exceptionally caring and accommodating nice guy to all of us. When you get panicked and ossified with failed lab results, he can always calm you down by looking into the possible problems with you, no wonder his girlfriend’s heart got captivated!

Name: Gary Ka Wing Yuen
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
An active participant yet sometimes careless. He contributed to one of the proposal ideas which is about electric e.coli yet did not get to work out regrettably. Being one of the members in the modelling group, he studies really hard to ensure himself understand all the equations and concepts so that he can explain to the rest of us afterwards. By the way, let me tell you something, he is extraordinarily kind to his girlfriend in that he never goes Dutch when it comes to dating expenses.

Name: Janice Man Jing Wong
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
She is always willing to learn, work and contribute, which makes her one of the valuable members in our team. While others are arguing for whatever reasons, she is always the first one going back to work and leaving us behind. Not only is she a hard-working member, she is also willing to take up extra duties with the most justifiable reason: I’m free anyway.

-
Name: Joyce On Ki Wong
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
The Learner. Joyce is a very hardworking and diligent person. She always asks anybody else if she has any doubts or questions. She is very humble and her presence always brings joy and happiness. She’s talkative and very interested in psychology! Also, we don’t need to worry about running out of LB or LB plates if she’s around!

Name: Karen Kar On Cheng
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
Karen is a our team leader. Despite that, she is easy to approach and always willing to help other members. She is always the first to enter the lab and the last to leave. Thanks to her, we don’t need to worry about running out of reagents as she is always on top of replenishing supplies. In the lab, she has been very patient with us, always replying “should be okay…” whenever we’re unsure or stressed out about something. She is responsible with keeping track of the team’s progress.

Name: Leona Long Ching Lai
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
Leona is a very devoted member of the project. The leader of one of the three module groups, she practises tough love on her group mates. She has a pretty loud voice so it might sometimes sound like she's being harsh but everyone knows she doesn't mean it. The most valuable trait of her is that she always tries to do beyond her responsibility and never cares about claiming credit, from planning daily experimental procedures to preparing materials for weekly presentations. We all appreciate her very much.

Name: Luna Jaya Eresta
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
The Teacher. Luna is a great teacher and leader. She’s very organized and quite perfectionist in her work. She is clear about what to do in the next step and focus on how to modify experiments in order to get a more reliable and persuasive result. Every day in the lab becomes smoother and easier because of the Workflow Plan that she initiated for our group. She’s also very good in delegating work for other people while considering their strengths and weaknesses. Besides, she’s secretly a quite sensitive and careless person, but she’s very professional when it comes to work. She also loves to tell jokes (although some of them are not funny) and take good photo of our team so that we can leave behind wonderful memories.

Name: Mike Dorothea
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
She is a very well organised people and very responsible. She always ask us for the content we need to present before the general meeting and then send the email. It is lucky for us to have her to be our secretary. Also, she is good at using photoshop and other software and is willing to teach us to use it. It helps a lot when we need to design a team logo and t-shirt. And she loves singing, she always sing when she is waiting for the PCR or gel.

Name: Olivia Winata
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
The Gel Loader. Olivia, or usually called OW, is super helpful and responsible in everything. She is very good in handling any work in the busiest days in the lab, she’s also known as the gel loader due to her talent in it. Her hobby in the lab is filling pipette tips box, while singing. Basically she sings every time there’s any waiting time in doing lab work, even during heat shock or cold shock. Funny thing about her is her panic response. Whenever she suddenly finds out something wrong, she will say “eh.. eh..” with a slightly louder voice.

-
Name: Raymon Rui Chen
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
Raymon spends a lot of time studying and aiding the work in modelling for the tri-stable switch. Moreover, he is always willing to provide help to people who are short in hands. He is the kind of person that you want to work as a partner since he is hard-working and willing to pursuit an accurate and reliable result which often requires more work. All in all, Raymon is a reliable and undoubtedly valuable member to the team.

-
Name: Sharon Suet Man Lai
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
The Laugher. Sharon is a very cheerful and humble person. She is a bit quiet and reserved when you first meet her, but she will be talkative once you’ve known her. She is hard-working when she’s in the lab, but you will only be able to meet her coming in the afternoon (P.S.: she cannot wake up early in the morning). She’s also talented in designing logo and other publication materials.

Name: Soo Kyung Shin
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
Soo is a Korean girl. Though she is the only Korean girl in the team, she would never feel lonely due to her adorable personality. Wearing a cheerful smile all the time, she makes everyone want to be close with her. Let me tell you a secret - she is even described as an angel, and I am sure you know the reasons behind.

-
Name: Steven Shing Yiu Fu
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
Steven is a diligent gentleman. He devoted a lot of time in experiments, modeling and designing the Wiki page. He is always very helpful and he never complain. (Don't ask me how he do it.) He might look cool but he is actually friendly when you talk to him.

Name: Tiffany Tze Wing Mak
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
Tiffany is a very smart and responsible teammate who actively participates in and helps with planning every aspect of the project. A critical thinker; she's always able to come up with new ways to troubleshoot our experiments. To most people, she appears to be a very serious no-nonsense kind of person. However, once she warms up, she has a pretty silly side too. Her responses to extreme stress can be pretty unpredictable and often hilarious (she'd once thrown her shoe at somebody). Her behaviour changes to suit the situation and people around her. Despite acting like a big sister most of the time, with some people, she can be childish and playful too.

-
Name: Victor Tsz Chun Tsang
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
Victor is a prudent and responsible experimenter in our laboratory. He is wonderful to work with, an absolute professional at all times. While designing an experiment, he is the one who can take all necessary details into consideration. In addition, he has a sense of humor, which always cheer us up when we meet difficulties.

-
Name: Winnie Yan Wa Ho
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
The Wonder Woman/Lifesaver. Winnie is very efficient when it comes to work. Either in the lab, or in Graphic Design team. She can do a lot of things in a short time. She’s also very diligent in naming gel photos and keeping them tidy (the lifesaver of our presentations). Other module should be jealous of pTet for having Winnie in the team!

-
Name: Medina Cuellar Raul Guillermo
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
This is the fourth year Raul involves in iGEM, yet his second year as an advisor. Being the most experienced advisor, he contributes most of his spare time to assisting our project works despite his heavy burden from his final year project. He is very popular in the sense that we always flock to him whenever we get our results failed. Besides, He is the most noticeable person in the lab, his distinct scent of cologne always catches your nerves at the very first moment he walks in.

Name: Eric Ming Fung Cheung
Height: I'm tall; Weight: It's a secret! Belongs to the tetp group.
The lab psychopath. Eric is the team leader of last year’s iGEM team and a first-time advisor this year. He would always question us on our interpretation of our lab results, regardless of if they are positive or not, but that’s just because he wants us to think critically. He may seem difficult to get along with at first due to his constant poker face. However, he does show a quirky side once in a (long) while. His advice is generally helpful and often helps add onto our knowledge. He is crazy in the way that he will only have lunch if his experiments fail, what a lab maniac!
