The TU-Munich's and LMU's iGEM team 2016
This year we have an especially diverse Team, since it was formed by bringing together students from Munich’s most important Universities. The Ludwigs-Maximilian University and the Technical University of Munich decided to look for interested students to participate at this year’s Giant Jamboree. That’s how the two Instructors of this year working at the chair of biological Chemistry at the WZW from the TUM gathered together ten Students from the TUM and six students of the LMU to work together. The outcome was a perfectly mixed team from members with experience in molecular biology, mechanics and even electronics. We were very lucky to be able to match together while working at the lab and we truly enjoyed the time spent together. It was also evident how each of us could support the project with our diverse skills.
Thanks to the imminent support of Prof. Dr. Arne Skerra and his team at the chair of biological chemistry we were able to accomplish our experiments and biological works in his well equipped laboratory.
Student Members
Clemens Ries
Field of Study:
Biology
Semester:
Master 3rd semester
University:
Technische Universität München
Every time we wanted to know anything about the cloning, Clemens was the best person to approach from the team. With his extensive experience in molecular biology due to his multiple Jobs as student assistant at diverse Investigation centers, he was able to keep the backbone of the project always straight. Trustworthy, honest and a ready-to-help person describe him perfectly. One of his best skills is rhetoric, he was always ready to explain us everything in the best manner possible. One word you'll hear him saying very often is hervorragend!, which in german means brilliant! or outstanding!, so you get an idea of the positive energy he transmits.
Enes Uğur
Field of Study:
Biochemistry
Semester:
Master 2nd semester
University:
Ludwig-Maximilian-Universität München
Our Kill-Switch guy, in cloning of safety mechanisms theres no one who can beat him. He was always was always prepared to make a transformation at noon. He did a lot for the debate and big part of the organization of it. Enes is compassionate and communicative, he likes to converse in a peaceful and clear manner. As a Student he is good involved in the student, involved in research and student activities.

Madeleine Premm
Field of Study:
Biology
Semester:
Bachelor 4th semester
University:
LMU
Madeleine's main superpower is communication, she could call you with her cellphone multiple times, for she likes clear information ;) . In organizing and precision she is the best one. Was it organizing the trips, planning and experiment or an event she could always make the best plan with a 5% possibility of going wrong. With her humor and her funny sarcasm she filled always the lab with the perfect amount of chill.

Elena Fajardo-Ruíz
Field of Study:
Biology
Semester:
Bachelor 4th semester
University:
TUM
¡Olé! from the Canary Islands Elena shared all her Biology superpowers with the team. She is an enthusiastic Biology student with a special interest in molecular and synthetic biology. She was always prepared to take responsibility of challenging parts of the project, from the Hypoxia projects to complex cloning steps she was always ready to give all her knowledge and expertise. She was also always willing to tell you some kind words and smile all round!
Julian Hofmann
Field of Study:
Biochemistry
Semester:
Bachelor 4th semester
University:
TUM
He may look a little serious at first but Julian has a lot of Interesting things to tell you. He has a broad spectrum of subjects and topics from which he knows about because of his curiosity. This was a great advantage while participating with our team. If you'd like to know why why a certain molecular biology experiment works the way it does, he can explain you the scientific reason. He helped the team with many aspects from the project, from wiki and html through cloning, video making and taking care of the outreach part.

Luisa is doubtless the life and soul at the lab. With her vivid personality she is always prepared to tell a good joke or make you smile with a story. Perseverance is her best attribute, Luisa was most of the time taking care of our fragile cells at the cell culture. Like a mother she took care of them and did all necessary experiments to keep them alive and working. Her engagement since she was in High School gave her a lot of experience in the cell culture.
