Veronika Li
Veronika is a sophomore from Uzbekistan studying Mechanical Engineering at NYUAD. When starting this project, she was only interested in the engineering aspect, but she eventually became very enthusiastic about the biology part as well. She was very excited to explore how the two disciplines interconnect and complement each other. She is also looking forward to delivering something new in this project.
Christine Dah-In Chung
Christine is a second year undergraduate from South Korea, pursuing a major in Computer Science and minors in Economics and Political Science at NYUAD. She decided to participate in the iGEM competition because it provided the perfect opportunity for her to learn new concepts outside of her own academic field. Stepping outside of her comfort zone, Christine had to face some difficult challenges, but her overall experience has been extremely rewarding and enjoyable so far.
Sannia Farrukh
Sannia is a sophomore from Lahore, Pakistan, pursuing a major in Biology. Her interest in the iGEM competition arose from her interest in synthetic biology.
