Zoe Ashwood

Physicist/ Mathematician aroused by the fact that linear algebra extends to biology.

Frequently engages in ceilidh dancing, sibling embarrassment and muddy walks. Less frequently: surfing, skiing and hill starts due to previous experiences.

Increase your confusion about life+make yourself unpopular with tutors by asking questions about truth-preserving #Biochemistry&Philosophy

Keeping up with uni work, a social life, sleep - you may have 2. What is this things you call sleep? #caffeine #saxophone #runningbarefoot

Antti Korpimäki

I'm a 3rd year computer scientist interested in P2P networks.⠠⠵ I live for connections and feel happiest where sciences overlap.

I speak three languages fluently, use Arch Linux and make and play videogames. Favourite anime episode: SHnY 9 [Kyon order] "Someday In The Rain".

Michael Lockhart

Fourth year of five Medicinal Chemist

I am interested in all aspects of science with chemistry as my main focus. I enjoy being part of iGEM as it brings disciplines together.

I enjoy rowing, cycling and playing rugby. I’m also a keen runner and I’m attempting to participate in races over the summer and next year.

Mindaugas Paužuolis

I am a first year biochemist with wide range of interests in science, especially in biochemistry and genetics. But most of all he is thrilled about terra nova of biology – synthetic biology.

Sometimes I try to combine biochemical reactions with salsa and cha cha rhythms. Motto of my life - experience something new every day.

Veronica Rezelj

4th year. Biochemistry. I am passionate about viruses and fascinated by the fact that cellular nano-scale machinery resemble machines we have engineered in a much bigger scale for use in our everyday life. I enjoy discussing ethical implications of science, spending time with friends, cooking, and traveling in my free time.

Aleksejs Sazonovs

I am a second year Computer Science student, who likes applying his skills in other scientific fields. I am especially interested in Big Data and Computer Vision. I enjoy travelling and my personal goal is to visit all the continents in the next decade. I like old movies and music.

Hannah Taylor

3rd Yr Evolutionary Biology. Into genetics, development and evolution; Forward thinking, exciting and lots of potential.

I like running, reading, rugby, hockey, swimming, eating and sleeping. I also like dogs and orange, mountains and skiing.

Yiwang Xu

I’m a second year medic at St Andrews. I enjoy chemistry and biology in my first year and now the medical course. I wish that iGEM brings me more “flavour” of biology and the fun of multidisciplinary teamwork!

By the way, I love music a lot and play alto saxophone myself.

Terry Smith

Reader in the Schools of Biology and Chemistry, my research utilises a wide range of disciplines to genetically and chemically validate drug targets involved in lipid metabolism of protozoan parasites that cause neglected Third world diseases, such African sleeping sickness.
