The Master of Coin.
Science crush:
Synthetic biology and metabolic engineering
If I weren't in the lab I would be:Surfing, diving or travelling.
If we die, we'll die, but first we live.
Tjaša Plaper
Field of study:Molecular and functional biology
Main contributions:Protein retention and secretion from the cell
Science crush:
Imunology and microbiology
If I weren't in the lab I would be:Travelling, drinking a beer with my friends or enjoying a quiet moment in nature with my dog.
Nik Franko
Field of study:Biotechnology
Main contributions:Novel regulated protein secretion system, novel split proteases, QC
He is freakish precise and innovative. And cloning quicker than you would expect for a man of that size.
Science crush:
Solving complex biological problems using synthetic biology, biotech entrepreneurship
If I weren't in the lab I would be:Training at the gym and still thinking about synbio. To really disconnect from lab I would go to Rome.
What do we say to the god of Wiki? Not today!
Lidija Magdevska
Field of study:Computer science and mathematics
Main contributions:Wiki design, debugging, modelling
Finding the invisible link between things
If I weren't in the lab I would be:As I am. All or not at all.
Miha Gradišek
Field of study:Electrical engineering
Main contributions:Research and implementation of the system for ultrasonic stimulation
Sometimes a man has to make hard choices, choices that might look wrong to others, but you know are right in the long run.
Science crush:
Development of integrated circuits, research of biomedical influence of ultrasound on the observed tissue
If I weren't in the lab I would be:Photoshooting nature somewhere in the wilderness.
When in comes to war, she fights for the lab, when it comes to science, she doesn't choose sides.
Estera Merljak
Field of study:Biochemistry
Main contributions:Confocal microscopy, cloning.
Science crush:
In the mysterious plasmid masquerade mammalian cells disguise as tea pots and ghosts, humoring few chosen for confocal microscopy. Only your own imagination is the limit of synthetic biology.
If I weren't in the lab I would be:A great lyric coloratura soprano.
Samo Roškar
Field of study:Medicine
Main contributions:Novel split proteases & inducible secretion system
In the Dawn Age of the Lab, before coming of other students and the raising of computers and coffees, there was only the Child of Nosleep.
Science crush:
Think about the medical application.
If I weren't in the lab I would be:Cycling and thinking how to make it better.
I'm no Lady.
Nina Jerala
Field of study:Medicine
Main contributions:Light inducible systems, light inducible split proteases, inducible logic gates
Science crush:
Physical anthropology, infectious disease, genetic engineering
If I weren't in the lab I would be:Going straight back to the lab. It's called the Stockholm syndrome.

From this time to the end of time, we are a free and independent kingdom.
Science crush:
Cardiovascular Research
If I weren't in the lab I would be:training judo or enjoying sunny beaches of Montenegro
They found some of my…experiments…too bold.
Arne Praznik
Field of study:Biotechnology
