  The House of Instructors

Wikifreeze is coming

Roman the Great, the First of His Name, Khal of the Wide White Lab, the King Beyond the Sliding Door, Bender of Coiled Coils and Master of the Logic Operations

Roman Jerala

Field of research:

Synthetic Biology, Bio-nanostructures, Innate Immunity

Main contributions:

Enabling everybody to get the best out of him/her


Science crush:

Designing molecules and cells, whatever is exciting and unorthodox.

If I weren't in the lab I would be:

Nowadays, I don't have much time to be in the lab anyway :-(

Mojca Benčina

Field of study:

Biochemistry, Immunology, Synthetic Biology, Molecular Biology

Main contributions:

supervising everybody on everything with emphasis on calcium signaling and microscopy

The Hand of the King


Science crush:

calcium signaling with mistresses immunology and synthetic biology

If I weren't in the lab I would be:

cross-country skiing

She drinks(redbull) and she knows things.

Tina Lebar

Field of study:

MSc Microbiology, currently a PhD candidate in the field of synthetic biology

Main contributions:

mentoring mechanosensing, calcium sensing and light sensing


Science crush:

My first love is mammalian synthetic biology. I`m inexplicably attracted to the wonderful world of transcriptional regulation, especially designable transcription factors such as TALEs and dCas9. Other than that, I`m interested in genome editing, bionanotechnology and metabolic engineering. Lately I`ve also been flirting with computational biology.

If I weren't in the lab I would be:

obsessively thinking about all the experiments I could be doing right now in the lab.

Tina Fink

Field of study:

Biochemistry and Molecular biology

Main contributions:

mentoring​ ​work with split proteases and ER secretion

The Master of Whisperers


Science crush:

You call it science crush, I call it a job.

-

There's no justice in this world, not unless we make it.

Jan Lonzarić

Field of study:

Biochemistry and Molecular biology

Main contributions:

Mentoring the work with split proteases and ER secretion


Science crush:

Patterns. Finding them, understanding how it all fits together, and then changing it and making new stuff from words, numbers, paper or molecules.

If I weren't in the lab I would be:

trying to impress someone with awesome facts about biology or linguistics, advocating social justice, or maybe just dancing a jig or a reel.

Maja Meško

Field of study:

Molecular biology

Main contributions:

Mentoring the work with ultrasound system, supplying enzymes and food.

Tomorrow, I am going to be chasing cats…


Science crush:

The infinite universe of synthetic biology

If I weren't in the lab I would be:

eating in the office or eating somewhere in the mountains.

Someone has to train them.

Fabio Lapenta

Field of study:

Biochemistry, Microbiology

Main contributions:

Mentoring the work with coiled coils


Science crush:

Protein and protein proteins

If I weren't in the lab I would be:

in the office.

Žiga Strmšek

Field of study:

Biotechnology, Microbiology, Industrial pharmacy

Main contributions:

mentoring, (trying to) keep up the morale

Every one of us is poor and powerless.


Science crush:

anything challenging that requires integration of knowledge and crazy ideas

If I weren't in the lab I would be:

taking a corner in my car, engine screaming, wind in my beard. Or fencing. Or working on my car.

  The House of Advisors

You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend: Those who are advisors and those who dig. You dig.

Miha Mraz

Field of research:

Unconventional Computing, Computational Biology, Synthetic Biology

Main contributions:

making decent interdisciplinary human beings, who are able to serve even a life-science team, out of computer science geeks.


Science crush:

... programmable life is here ...

If I weren't in the lab I would be:

on a snow groomer as a driver.

Miha Moškon

Field of study:

Computational biology

Main contributions:

Advising the computational part of the team.

Never forget you are merely a computer scientist. The rest of the world will not. Wear it like armor, and it can never be used to hurt you.


Science crush:

creating life in silico.

If I weren't in the lab I would be:

on my bike.

Across the world footprints go,
across the world tracks through snow.
God knows who came before me,
god knows who after me will go...
