Who we are



Advisors:

  • Advisor 1: Marcos E. Garcia-Ojeda
  • Advisor 2: Wei-Chun Chin


Undergrads:

  • Student 1: Michael Urner

My name is Michael Urner and I am continuing senior at UC Merced. I will be obtaining a B.S. in Molecular Biology and a B.S. in Materials Science Engineering this coming May. I have a vast background in research. I started when I was a Senior in high school and it includes: botany/horticulture, fungicide research, agriculture research, stem cell, genomic annotation, and polymer synthesis and characterization. I plan to enter industry after graduation and pursue bio-materials fabrication and research.


  • Student 2: Duc Vo

I’m Duc and I joined the iGEM team because I want to have more experienced with biology lab. I’m currently a senior at UC Merced, studying biology with Microbiology and Immunology emphasis.


  • Student 3: Israel Juarez Contreras

Hi I'm Israel! I am currently a senior at UC Merced majoring in Bioengineering. Being part of UC Merced has given me the opportunity to become part of new organizations such as being a charter member of Theta Tau and obviously starting up the first iGEM team here! My hobbies including cooking, baking, and well obviously eating! After graduating I plan to explore this world we live in and eventually end up interning and jumping ship to graduate school.


  • Student 4: Nosherwan Zahid

I joined iGEM because I wanted to learn more about the techniques in molecular biology and get a feel for what it's like to do a research project from start to finish without having clear cut instructions. Having to do independent research and integrating all the knowledge I have gained as an undergraduate -that's something that got me really excited. I am currently studying Biological Sciences at UCMerced with a minor in Applied Mathematics. First and foremost, I plan to Graduate. As a long term goal, I plan to pursue a career in medicine where I can combine my love of science with my ambition to help others. I am interested in research in the medical field -particularly neuroscience.


  • Student 5: Yale Yuen

I am a senior studying bioengineering. iGEM caught my interest back at Abraham Lincoln High School. I am really interested in genetic engineering especially after taking a biotechnology course. I am motivated to achieve great things with my education and venture onto some innovative work in the future. On my leisure time hanging out with friends, playing games, and going to the gym is a great way to spend it.


  • Student 6: Norman Luong

My name is Norman Luong and I am a senior getting my B.S. in Bioengineering with a minor in Chemical Sciences. I enjoy cooking, video games, and reading whenever I have the time. My research interests include nanotechnology, sustainable energy, and genetic engineering. I am not sure what field I would like to research in, but my current hope is that getting a job will help me figure that out.


  • Student 7: Marwin Ko

Hey! My name is Marwin Ko. I currently attend UC Merced as a Bioengineering major. In addition to iGEM, I am a member of the professional engineering fraternity, ΘΤ and international fraternity, ΚΣ. In my spare time I work as a research assistant under Professor Chin investigating scaffolding methods via electrospinning. When I graduate I plan to pursue my masters in mechanical engineering and then eventually a doctorate in electrical engineering. My goal is to work on research that will help re-engineer current mechanical systems using biological systems as a template.
