Craig Johnston

Field: Mathematics
Team: Dry team
Role: Mathematical modelling
If you could be anything what would you be?
A transformer so I can be anything I want to be..

Kyle Harrison

Field: Applied Computing
Team: Dry team
Role: Software Development / Design
If you could be anything what would you be?
A toaster because everyone likes toast.

Rachel Findlay

Field: Mathematical Biology
Team: Dry team
Role: Mathematical Modelling
If you could be anything what would you be?
An Axolotl so I can regenerate my own limbs and live underwater.

Nasir Ahmad

Field: Physics
Team: Dry team
Role: Hardware Designer / Modelling
If you could be anything what would you be? :
Thunder in the middle of a rainstorm because it’s absolutely lovely

Ewa Grabowiecka

Field: Microbiology
Team: Wet team
Role: Microcystin Sensor
If you could be anything what would you be?
Grumpy Cat. Not only would I be a cat, which by itself provides me with a great deal of charisma, ability to sleep forever and fabulous fur. It would also mean that even though I was grumpy people would still find me adorable and I would become an internet sensation without even doing anything.

Philip Rodger

Field: Molecular Biology
Team: Wet team
Role: Microcystin Detector
If you could be anything what would you be?
If you could be anything what would you be?

John Allan

Field: Microbiology
Team: Wet team
Role: Microcystin Sensor
If you could be anything what would you be?
Tony Stark, he’s got it all – the brains, the cash and the charm.

Alice Rowan

Field: Biomedical Sciences
Team: Wet team
Role: Microcystin Sensor
If you could be anything what would you be?
I'd be a dream, as I would be real but also surreal. There'd be no restrictions on what I wanted to do or where I wanted to go and time wouldn't simply tick away ...it could be quickened, slowed or even reversed!

Chris Earl

Field: Molecular Biology
Team: Wet team
Role: Microcystin Sensor
If you could be anything what would you be?
I would like to be an E.coli cell. Probably a pathogenic strain so I could infect people I don’t like. The main reason for this choice is so that this curse of consciousness that I have been enduring for the last 22 years will be over.

Kyle Buchan

Field: Molecular Biology
Team: Wet team
Role: Microbiology Specialist
If you could be anything what would you be?
I'd like to be Morgan Freeman. Because...I'd be Morgan Freeman! What's not to like?
