Introducing the iGEM Team Bielefeld 2012


Who we are

Bielefeld iGEM-Team 2012: Back-row from left to right: Robert Braun, Gabriele Kleiner, Kevin Jarosch, Moritz Müller, Hakan Geyik, Miriam Fougeras, Saskia Scheibler, Agatha Walla. Front-row from left to right: Sebastian Wiebe, Isabel Huber, Julia Schirmacher, Nadine Legros, Malak Fawaz, Derya Kirasi, Julia Voss.

Our Team consists of 15 dedicated undergraduate students from Bielefeld University. We are majoring in Molecular Biotechnology, Genome-Based Systems Biology, Bioinformatics and Molecular Cell Biology. Our participation in this competition enables us to get inolved in an international project, which gives us the chance to collaborate and challenge with excellent early stage researchers from all over the world. This participation results from personal and scientific interest and all our work is realized in our spare time besides the regular academic calendar. In order to realize our project, we try to maintain a high level of organization charge and accomplish a large amount of work. But despite all the work, we have a lot of fun

Robert Braun

Coming Soon "Taking part in iGEM is maybe the best chance to test and surpass the own limits and to compete and cooperate with other young scientists. On of the greatest things about iGEM is the “spirit”, the chance to meet and get to know hundreds of young people, feel and be part of the innovation of iGEM and to realize that all those people from around the world share the same passion."

Malak Fawaz

Coming Soon "As a member of an iGEM team I hope we would be able to achieve our expected results and develop a filter system to purify wastewater with the help of synthetic biology. On the other hand, I also hope we could improve the public perception of synthetic biology and reveal the great potential of this emerging field of science."

Miriam Fougeras

Coming Soon "I am taking part at iGEM to learn how to plan a research project and to work in a motivated team. Especially, I am interested in meeting people from a number of different countries. I am hoping to get more practical training in the lab and hopefully have fun with my and the other teams in boston :)."

Hakan Geyik

Coming Soon "Changing the biology of organisms using synthetic biology is changing the world to a better place. "

Isabel Huber

Coming Soon "t’s a great opportunity to work as a team on our own project and to get to know other young scientists. I hope to gain new experiences and knowledge in lab and around."

Kevin Jarosch

Coming Soon "The reason why I participate in iGEM is to work on our project, to improve my Softskill and to get new connections to the scientific Network. I hope to win the Main Award and the Improvement of my Skills."

Derya Kirasi

Coming Soon "Coming soon"

Gabriele Kleiner

Coming Soon " In my opinion the iGEM competition offers us a possibility to plan OUR OWN project starting from an initial idea up to financial aspects and the lab work. Trough my participation I hope I will learn how to plan and to organize a project and the lab work in a team and also how to present a project (to improve my soft skills). "

Nadine Legros

Coming Soon "I love to possibility to plan and operate our own project. To get in contact with other international teams and to work for our selves. I wish to learn something about organising new projects and about interacting in a team, in which everyone has the same goal. I want to use iGEM to improve my soft skills and to learn new interesting methods."

Moritz Müller

Coming Soon "The reason why I participate in iGEM is to realize a project of our own, finally! I wish to broaden my horizon, meet clever people & have a lot of fun."

Saskia Scheibler

Coming Soon "I enjoy being able to plan and carry out a whole project independently with other students and not to work after some professors script. I hope to learn some new methods, to feel successful in the end and of course to have fun."

Julia Schirmacher

Coming Soon "Coming soon"

Julia Voß

Coming Soon "To realize your own project in a group of totally different persons is wunderful and a great chance to learn a lot from each other. That´s wy I think iGEM is such a interesing and important experience."

Agatha Walla

Coming Soon "The reason why I participate in iGEM is because I want to have a nice time with people I like and who are interested in the same topics as I am. Of course I wish that our team can achieve as much as possible, but I want to finish this project knowing that we all worked together, gave our best, learned a lot and partied hard."

Sebastian Wiebe

Coming Soon "There is no better way to learn, than to work on a manageable Project by choice."

Supervisors

We are guided by two graduate advisers, Timo Wolf and Nils Lübke, who were members of previous Bielefeld iGEM-Teams. They were team members in 2010 and 2011 and now helping us with their experience and knowledge.


Also we are actively supported by professors and lecturers, namly Dr. Jörn Kalinowski (member of the executive committee from CeBiTec and Head of Research Group Microbial Genomics and Biotechnology, Prof. Dr. Alfred Pühler (Senior Research Professor at CebiTec at Bielefeld University), Prof. Dr. Erwin Flaschel (holds the Chair of Fermentation Engineering at the Faculty of Technology at Bielefeld University) and Dr. Christian Rückert (Postdoc at Research Group Microbial Genomics and Biotechnology).
