The Team

Liam Carroll

Head Honcho. El Numero Uno. Mr. Big. The Godfather. Lord of the Rings. The Bourne... Identity. Er... Taxi Driver. Jaws. 3rd Year Biomedical Scientist, previously a member of the 2015 Warwick iGEM team. Team leader for 2016.

Issy Holden

Issy was the chief designer of our constructs, with help from our supervisors, Will and Manish. Gene Designer. Primer-Donna. Fourth Year Chemical Biologist with interests in physical and organic chemistry.

Egheosa Ogbomo

Egheosa Ogbomo is a 3rd year Mechanical Engineer. He was a member of the 2015 iGEM team that worked on the Brixells project. He modelled the behaviour of the SPIROSENSR system using MATLAB.

Konstantina Koteva

Was a fourth year Maths/Physics student at Warwick during the course of the project. Currently she holds a position as a pHD studying Quantum Physics at the University of Bristol. She is the main constructor of our software tools. Also is a Parseltongue (knows Python).

Anjana Radhakrishnan

Anjana worked mainly in the labs, where she has mastered the art of pipetting small quantities of liquid from one place to another. She is also the maintainer of our Lab Books and keeper of the Protocols. Lab rat. Third Year Biologist.

Chinwe Odili

Chinwe is a third year Civil Engineer and is by far the most outgoing member of the team. A key visual designer in the team.

Lorna Flintham

Lorna is a second year chemist with an interest in branching out into biochemical subjects. Was the chief communicator when interacting with other companies and the public. She organised outreach and collaboration with other universities and interactions with other public organisations.

Hayden Tobin

Hayden is a second year Chemist. He was one of the main designers of the Metal Aptamer detection system. Plays Frisbee.

Robert Richardson

Robert is a fourth year Chemist and all around genius at his subject. He is the other main designer of the Metal Aptamer detection system. Stands out in a crowd.

Connor Bestwick

Connor is a Computer Scientist, currently working in Mobile App and Web Development, he built the website for the team, despite knowing absolutely nothing about the science behind it. Under-appreciated Code Monkey.

Supervisors

Alfonso Jaramillo

Professor Alfonso Jaramillo is the coordinator of the EVOPROG consortium. He holds a PhD in Particle Physics and a Habilitation thesis in Biology. He started in 2003 as Assistant Professor at the Ecole Polytechnique, becoming tenured in 2005. In 2009, after moving to Genopole as CNRS-senior researcher, he started his experimental synthetic biology lab, utilizing directed evolution, microscopy, microfluidics and 3D printing. In 2013, he opened a second lab at the University of Warwick, where he holds the Chair of Synthetic Biology.

Manish Kushwaha

Manish's research interests include improving the design to specification of synthetic biological systems for more predictable engineering, expanding the cross-species compatibility of genetic systems, and implementing complex decision making in cellular consortia. He has previously used computational biophysical modelling of synthetic genetic networks for cross-species compatibility in bacteria. Prior to that, his research was focused on understanding mechanisms of gene regulation, where he studied chromatin remodelling in trypanosomes and computational prediction of pre-microRNAs. In addition, he has been involved in mentoring International Genetically Engineered Machine (iGEM) teams over the last few years.

Will Rostain

Will is a PhD candidate in synthetic biology at Warwick University. Trained in Biotechnology and Synthetic Biology, he now works on the engineering of RNA circuits using a combination of computational and experimental approaches. His research interests include the development of methods for abstracting biological design, and high throughput directed evolution.

Alex Darlington

Alex is a PhD candidate in Synthetic Biology, interested in modelling circuit dynamics in synthetic circuits and the interaction between circuits and chassis/hosts. He is also interested in the engineering of microbial populations. He has a Masters in Systems Biology from Cambridge and currently resides at The University of Warwick.
