    Students


    I have just finished the second year of Engineering and I am planning to continue specialising in Electrical and Information Sciences. I have always been interested in integrating engineering into biological applications and thus I find iGEM as an excellent educational experience. Apart from science and engineering, I enjoy swimming (preferably in the Mediterranean) and hiking.
    I am Lucía. I am one final project away from getting the degree in Biotechnology.

    I love meeting people, learning and having new experiences.

    For me, enter iGEM was primarily a learning opportunity. I wanted to learn how to develop a science project from the beginning to the end, from the idea to the results. I also liked the idea of meeting people and spend a different summer.

    Sub-teams: Yeast, Modeling, Wiki and Poster.
    I spent the last year doing biochemistry and neuroscience, and will be doing more of that as a part II PDN (Physiology, Development and Neuroscience) student next year, with my main interest in developmental neurobiology. But SynBio is exciting too- so is photography, and baking ;)
    Does the picture not tell you everything you need to know?
    Hya! I’m Maria, a recently graduate Biologist and a future Geneticist.

    I’m unhinibited but formal, direct but polite, planner but cheeky and ambitious but rational. People use to think my face is like an open book and so you are’re invited to flick through it in the iGEM presentation!

    I love meeting people from around the world and that’s one of the main reasons why I joined the competition and why I’m so looking forward to be there!

    Sub-teams: Bacteria, Human Practices, Presentation
    I finished my third year Engineering for the Life Sciences course this year and will be continuing with this for my masters year in October. This is my first major foray into experimental biology and am keen to get as much engineering into the project as possible!
    My name is Guillermo, but everyonein the lab calls me Zafri. I am a second year biotechnologist.

    I consider myself intuitive and creative and I like to solve problems on my own and be self-taught. I like doing science at home.

    I entered the iGEM because it is an opportunity to begin to investigate, which I love.

    In the future I would like to work in industrial biotechnology.

    Sub-teams: Bacteria and Yeast.
    I'm a biologist mostly interested in cell biology and biochemistry, but also in pathological processes and viruses, both as pathogens and as potential chassis for synthetic systems. Next year I'm going on to a third (and fourth) year of biochemistry, by which point I hope to be able to pipette with two Gilsons simultaneously.
    I'm a biologist with an interest in cell biology and biochemistry, although next year I'm specialising in plant sciences which is also very cool. Outside of science I like lots of samba percussion and all kinds of outdoor pursuits.
