Gökhan Ersoy

 

Software Advisor

Hi, I am Gökhan. :) I am a Computer Engineer. And this year, I’ve started studying bioinformatics at Middle East Technical University, as a graduate student. This is my second year in iGEM. Last year I got a Best Use of Registry award in MIT, with a software project. Although I'm a computer scientist; I always like genetics and working in the lab environment. I think iGEM is a perfect way to improve my knowledge on genetics. In our team, I am advisor of software sub-team and I am responsible of managing the team to develop a biological model. On the other hand, I am giving advices to develop team wiki. That's all for me. Good luck for all teams! :)

@BetteMidler Craziest thing I’ve heard in a long time. That’s like blaming the gun for killing someone instead of the person.

 

Özge Özgüc

 

WetLabçi

I am Özge Özgüç, a second year student at Molecular Biology and Genetics department in METU. I am at wet lab part and human practice part of our team. My reason for being a member of an iGEM team was that it has been my dream since my high school days. Although I haven’t decided what I will study yet, studying synthetic biology is one of my thought about future and iGEM has an important role on this. I am happy with being a member of this team because my team friends are really enjoyable people and I am also happy with working on this project because WE ARE TRYING TO MAKE WORLD BETTER TO LIVE.

Ekin Saglican

 

CEO & Director of Operations, Partner

I am Ekin Saglican, a third year student in the Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics at METU. I also have a minor program in Logic and Philosophy of Science. This is my first year in IGEM as a part of the lab-team. I’ve really enjoyed working in the laboratory and gained a lot of experience. For new IGEM teams, this is not an easy competition and you should work very hard, but i believe it will worth working for.

Gözde Arabaci

 

CEO & Director of Operations, Partner

I’m Gözde Arabaci, a third year student at the department of Molecular Biology and Genetics in METU. This was my first year in iGEM and I contributed my team in the lab work. I heard about iGEM two years ago, in my first year at METU and I became interested in synthetic biology. That’s why I want my future studies to be in the field of synthetic biology. It was great to be a part of an iGEM team because I learned so many new things and of course I had so much fun. That’s why for the new iGEM teams I can say that, work hard but don’t forget to enjoy every minute of this competition.

Melike Dönertas

 

CEO & Director of Operations, Partner

I'm Melike Dönertas, a third year student at Molecular Biology and Genetics Department. I am also studying Information Systems as minor program. This is the first iGEM experience for me and I am very enthusiastic for the following years :) I mainly worked on modelling part of project. I am very happy to be a member of iGEM team because while I was learning so many things I also had lots of fun. In this competition we are in charge of project and I think that is very important. iGEM is also a very important opportunity to learn how to overcome obstacles during a study and how to be a team.

Buse Isbilir

 

CEO & Director of Operations, Partner

I am Buse Isbilir , a third year student in Molecular Biology and Genetics Department in METU. This year is my first iGEM experience and I think I will be in next iGEM teams of METU. This year I contributed to mostly the modelling part of our project and had a little contribution to lab work. I am happy to be a part of iGEM, because in this competition you are the captain of your ship. This sense of freedom is just my thing.

Kübra Narci

 

CEO & Director of Operations, Partner

I am Kübra Narci, currently started Ms in bioinformatics at METU and just graduated from department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, METU. This year with my friends and me, we constitute a new IGEM team and build a new lab for us, so we guaranteed the success already in the competitition! In future, for sure, I want to do something about synthetic biology and contribute in some way to new teams..

Alisan Kayabölen

 

CEO & Director of Operations, Partner

I am Alisan Kayabölen. I’ve just graduated from Molecular Biology and Genetics department and this year I’m starting my master study at Biomedical Engineering, METU. Until this summer, I couldn’t do anything at “genetics” side of my own department. I studied on stem cells and tissue engineering fields during my internship and special project course. So, iGEM was a huge chance for me to study genetics and learn many techniques about synthetic biology. My dream is to be able to combine tissue engineering and synthetic biology fields. I’ve worked mainly at wet lab part of our team. And, I also tried to find sponsors for our project, but it is difficult to say that I was very successful?
