Hi everyone! My name is Paolo and I come from Italy. I am currently enrolled in the MSc in Synthetic Biology and Biotechnology. I like electronic music, football and swimming. I have laboratory experience in microbiology and cell biology. I am very interested in algal biotechnology, so working on the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. 6803 as part of the Edinburgh OG iGEM research project is really exciting for me!
Hi, I'm Yu Yan and I come from China. I like playing volleyball, cooking and shopping. My major is Biotechnology and I have done Bioengineering before come here. This is my first time to study abroad and also the first time to take part in an iGEM competition. In this team, I'm using the MoClo to prototype the plasmids for our non-model organisms.
Hey, I'm Tom and I'm from Newcastle. I spent my undergraduate degree in Manchester studying neuroscience and have since seen the light and switched to synthetic biology. Less than a year ago I hadn't heard of iGEM and I'd only seen Penicillium roqueforti on plate. Now I'm getting used to seeing it in a petri dish. I'm looking forward to travelling to Boston and making the case that useful chassis can be found everywhere, even in your cheese!.
I am Ib from Kuwait. Fun fact, do you know that traditional biologists call synthetic biology molecular biology with spices? Well we - iGEMers - are here and there and everywhere to prove them wrong! I am doing biochemistry and I enjoy playing football and getting concentration calculations right!
Hi people!I'm Matin and I'm from Indonesia. I study Synthetic Biology & Biotechnology in Edinburgh. I love sunshine and the warm tropical beach. Outside the lab, I am concerned with education of young scientist (age 12-18) in South East Asia by doing research and innovation. Anyway, this is my first time being an iGEM team! Very excited to play with Phytobricks & MoClo this year!
Hey everyone! I’m Anette and I’m from Mexico. I’m currently studying an MSc in Biotechnology and, having studied Biotechnology Engineering previously, I’m excited to learn new programming skills and develop a new risk assessment tool for the community! More about me? I enjoy t, football, binge-watching online content and playing videogames.
Hi fellas, my name is Adair and I’m a sweets addict (from Mexico city). I am doing a MSc in Synthetic Biology and Biotech at the University of Edinburgh. I watch cartoons all the time and my favorite kind of music is? mmm I don’t have one but I like groups like Phoenix and Passion pit. I love molecular biology and microbiology and for some reason I have always worked with opportunistic pathogens. However, my bachelors was in Biology so I know too some cool things about other type of organisms
Hi, my name is Yaiza, I am studying the MSc in Biotechnology and I am from Colombia. I enjoy cooking, hiking and looking after pets. As part of the iGEM team, I am working on the Interlab study, which is a great oportunity to contribute to the development of more reliable and reproducible methods in synthetic biology.
Chris French Chris French is interested in synthetic biology, a new discipline at the interface of biology and engineering. With colleagues in the School of Engineering & Electronics, they are developing methods to engineer novel biological systems using modular 'parts' and standardized assembly methods. These can be applied to generate artificial genetic networks, in a process we call 'object-oriented genetics', and also to generate multiple variants of metabolic pathways, in a process they call 'combinatorial genetic engineering'.
Louise Horsfall Louise Horsfall, a Lecturer in Biotechnology at the University of Edinburgh, is interested in multidisciplinary challenges involving Biotechnology and Synthetic Biology. She is the recipient of the University of Edinburgh’s 2015 Chancellor’s Rising Star Award, the elected co-chair of the Bioengineering and Bioprocessing Section of the European Federation of Biotechnology and a member of the EPSRC's Early Career Forum in Manufacturing Research.
