Team presentation

iGEM Copenhagen2012 is the second team to participate in iGEM. The team is divided into those who work in the laboratory and the external members that work with the project from different fields of study. The team was started around February 2012 and the external members joined in the beginning of the summer. During the spring a lot of brainstorming was done to find the perfect project, and in the beginning of July we started the lab work. Of course gaining good results is the prime goal, but having a fun and educational summer with the team is equally important.

Team members

Name:

Chris Skovgaard Ramming

Programme:

Molecular Biomedicine, Undergraduate 1st year

Field of interest:

Histopathology and Neuromedicine

Hobbies:

I love spending time with my family and friends, but i also have a large interest for Herpetology and I have 12 years experience with keeping, breeding and handling a variety of snakes and other reptiles.

Motivation for iGEM participation:

To have a fun summer in great company, and gain experience. Apart from Lab work also responsible for webpage design.

Name:

Camilla Schwartz

Programme:

Molecular Biomedicine, Undergraduate 3rd year

Field of interest:

Stem cell biology

Hobbies:

Cake!

Motivation for iGEM participation:

To gain a lot of lab-experience and theoretical knowledge on synthetic biology. On top of that I hope to have a fun summer with great people and learn from our interdisciplinary teamwork.

Name:

Naja Emborg Vinding

Programme:

Molecular Biomedicine, Undergraduate 3rd year

Field of interest:

Immunology

Hobbies:

Competitive gymnastics, Modern Dance and Travelling.

Motivation for iGEM participation:

To spend an interesting summer with a great team. I am looking forward to learn more in the field of synthetic biology and work with people from different fields of study.

Name:

Line Alsøe Barington

Programme:

Molecular Biomedicine, Undergraduate 3rd year

Field of interest:

Immunology and Bacteriology.

Hobbies:

Kayaking and traveling.

Motivation for iGEM participation:

Learning about biotechnology and having a lot of fun with my awesome team mates.

Name:

Michel Saremi

Programme:

Biochemistry, Undergraduate 2nd year

Field of interest:

Neurology

Hobbies:

Swimming, Running, Muay Thai

Motivation for iGEM participation:

I heard Molecular Biomedicine has the prettiest girls ☺

Name:

Malte Thodberg

Programme:

Molecular Biomedicine, Undergraduate 3rd year

Field of interest:

Molecular Evolution and Genomics

Hobbies:

Piano, jogging and CrossFit

Motivation for iGEM participation:

The exciting process of creating new life from simple parts. IGEM is basically like biological LEGOs - and who would not want to play with LEGOs all summer?

Name:

Charlotte Navntoft

Programme:

Molecular Biomedicine, Undergraduate 3rd year

Field of interest:

Neuroscience and Pharmachology

Hobbies:

Pilates and tanning

Motivation for iGEM participation:

The opportunity to transform school desk knowledge into do-it-your-self-biology is appealing. In addition, we can propagate to the public that Science is more than crocked, ancient men pottering about in basements – it is e.g. creative and curious students.

Name:

Lea Gregers

-In this project we are producing a construct that allows cyanobacteria to emit light when exposed to darkness for an extended period.
-The advantage of using cyanobacteria over other model organisms such as E. coli, is that Cyanobacteria do not require glucose in growth, but fix the CO2 in the atmosphere.
-The construct uses promoters of genes that are involved in the circadian rhythm of cyanobacteria, associated with a luciferase gene casette containing all the enzymes necessary for the deployment of biologically generated light.
-The result is a sustainable system in which cyanobacteria per day will synthesize the components necessary for the production of light and consume them at night during the emission of light.</p>
