Keith Kozminski, PhD

Dr. Kozminski has provided us with advice and guidance for our project from start to finish. Every time we encounter a problem, Dr. Kozminski is the first person we reach out to for help, and he always has an insightful answer at hand. Without the aid of Dr. Kozminski, we would not have been able to progress nearly as far with our project as we have, and we are very grateful to have him as our team advisor.

Ms. Christopher

Ms. Christopher has been an invaluable resource to us in the lab. Always willing to help, Ms. Christopher makes sure our packages are delivered to our lab, shows us how to use new equipment, and orders common chemicals for us. When we are in a pinch, she is even kind enough to lend us buffers and lab supplies from her own stock. In general, Ms. Christopher has made wetwork much easier for Virginia iGEM 2016, and we thank her for everything she has done for us.

Rich Smidak

A graduate student in Dr. Kozminski's lab, Rich has been a saving grace whenever we encounter technical problems in the lab. Need a 250mL centrifuge tube? Rich probably knows where it is. Having trouble with the sonicator? Odds are good that Rich is willing to help you out. Thank goodness that Rich is willing to put up with all of our badgering. If not for this congenial man, we would have gotten stuck in the middle of our protocols more than once.

Jason Papin, PhD

Dr. Papin is a Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Virginia. His research interests include the integration of high-throughput data into predictive, computational models that can be used to interrogate metabolic and regulatory networks in microbial pathogens and human disease. We are grateful to have Dr. Papin as an advisor.
