Who we are

We are ten motivated students from Bielefeld University (Germany), who are working together to gain experience in teamwork, synthetic biology and realizing a great project together. We are also interested in connecting with other teams and to collaborate with them.


The iGEM-Team Bielefeld 2013: Ready to start the lab-work.

Team

Molecular Biotechnology, Master

Lukas Rositzka



Studies: Molecular Biotechnologie

Motivation: iGEM - for me as a student a unique and exciting opportunity to be part of a team of young and dedicated scientists beyond the confines of university seminars and to design, implement and present a joint project in synthetic biology.








Genome-based Systems Biology, Master

Sebastian Grenz



Studies: Genome-based Systems Biology, Master

Motivation: I´m interested in working in an autonomously organized team and in developing a very own project from the planning stage through to successful completion. Synthetic biology offers, due to its modular structure, numerous opportunities for exciting projects. iGEM is considered the most prestigious competition in the field of lief sciences and enables contact and competition with teams from around the world.










Molecular Biotechnologie, Bachelor

Tom Tubessing



Studies: Molecular Biotechnology, Bachelor

Motivation:










Molecular Biotechnology, Master

Manuel Schüler



Studies: Molecular Biotechnology, Master

Motivation: iGEM ​​is a unique opportunity beside of the study to gain new skills and develop existing skills. From the idea to the product team members decide how they structure their project themselves and make the necessary decisions independently. It is a prestigious competition in the life sciences, which also accounts for the attraction at this high level to conduct research and to compete with international teams.








Molecular Biotechnologie, Master

Matthias Ruwe



Studies: Molecular Biotechnology, Master

Motivation:










Molecular Biotechnologie, Bachelor

Thorben Meyer



Studies: Molecular Biotechnology, Bachelor

Motivation: For me, iGEM is about being creativ on a nanobiotechnological/engineering level and working application-oriented. So that we are able to give smart and plain answers to complex problems.









Molecular Biotechnologie, Bachelor

Tore Bleckwehl



Studies: Molecular Biotechnology, Bachelor

Motivation: The most intersting part for me about iGEM is the challenge to generate new metabolic pathways and to reprogram biological systems, by the skillfull combination of BioBricks.









Molecular Biotechnologie, Bachelor

Fabian Thomas



Studies: Molecular Biotechnology, Bachelor

Motivation:









Genome-based Systems Biology, Master

Anna Korszanska



Studies: Genome-based Systems Biology, Master

Motivation: iGEM is a good introduction to scientific work for me. I get to know many exciting methods in synthetic biology and work my way into new fields and topics of natural science.










Molecular Biotechnologie, Master

Nadiya Romanova



Studies: Molecular Biotechnology, Master

Motivation: I strive to understand life using the tools of synthetic biology. iGEM ​​offers a unique opportunity to develop organisms with novel properties.









Supervisors

Molecular Biotechnology, Master
Nils Lübke Timo Wolf

We are guided by two graduate advisers, Timo Wolf and Nils Lübke, who were members of previous Bielefeld iGEM-Teams. They were team members in 2010 and 2011 and now helping us with their experience and knowledge.


Dr. Jörn Kalinowski Dr. Christian Rückert Also we are actively supported by professors and lecturers, namly Dr. Jörn Kalinowski (member of the executive committee from CeBiTec and Head of Research Group Microbial Genomics and Biotechnology, Prof. Dr. Alfred Pühler (Senior Research Professor at CebiTec at Bielefeld University), Prof. Dr. Erwin Flaschel (holds the Chair of Fermentation Engineering at the Faculty of Technology at Bielefeld University) and Dr. Christian Rückert (Postdoc at Research Group Microbial Genomics and Biotechnology).
