Meet the Contestants for this year's competition!!!
She recently graduated from Concordia University with a Specialization in Cell and Molecular Biology. She became interested in participating in iGEM after performing her independent research project involved with protein trafficking, and wishes to pursue her studies in psychopharmacology.
A second year undergraduate student with honors in Cell and Molecular Biology. He loves to study many different topics of science and hopes to pursue the interdisciplinary field of study of biomedical engineering.
A recent graduate from Concordia University with a degree in Honours Biochemistry, he wants to pursue future studies in veterinary medicine. In his free time, he likes gaming, jogging, and baking.
A first-year undergraduate student specializing in Biology at Concordia University. She’s also a competitor for Concordia’s tennis team and volunteers at the Montreal Children’s Hospital weekly. Eager to gain research experience and work hands-on in synthetic biology.
A second year undergraduate student in Biology with a double minor in political science and film studies. Alaa has many interests and hobbies: comedy, experimental film, and street art. She wishes to pursue a degree in whatever destiny has determined for her, which is code for “I dont know...yet.”
A graduating Concordia University student who is completing her undergraduate degree in Honours Cell and Molecular Biology with a minor in Interdisciplinary Studies in Science. She is actively involved in cell cycle research and is interested in pursuing her studies in the health sciences.
He is in his final year in his specialization in Molecular Biology at Concordia University. When asked about his plans for the future, Thiban has learned to mask the “I don’t know... yet” statement, with “So many possibilities!”
A mexican from BC who’s currently a third year undergraduate student in Speciliazation in Cell and Molecular Biology Extended Credit Program and he wants to pursue medicine. He currently enjoys napping and the colour purple… quite grumpy when he doesn’t nap.
She is entering her third year at Concordia University majoring in Biology and minoring in Environmental Geography. She opts for a career as a conservation biologist, but has yet to explore other diverse fields in synthetic biology through iGEM.
She has one year left until she graduates with a specialization in Biology. She finds the field of genetics particularly interesting. The first time she heard about iGEM was when she was a first year student and she immediately knew that she would participate in this competition one day.
