After an internship and various practical trainings, iGEM is the first big opportunity to get real insights and expertise in the design and realization of scientific projects for him. Since there is almost no time for anything else until the Jamboree is over, he will be grateful to spend more time making music as a percussionist and doing something where fresh air, daylight and beautiful landscapes are involved, following the iGEM experience. In the meantime, he is part of our iJAMing combo a late visitor to the lab may encounter. In the iGEM project he is mainly involved in the indigoidine tag optimization subproject and its modeling.">

She has done a few internships so far but wanted to 'do her thing', which is why she joined the iGEM Team. Afterwards, she is going to spend a few weeks in the US for an internship and then studying in Denmark for one semester. Tania worked on the synthetic peptide and indigoidine tagging subproject and contributed a lot of hours into the design of the team’s website and our shiny introduction video on NRPS, she realized. She would recommend joining an iGEM Team to anyone! Everyone experienced a steep learning curve, not only improving wet lab skills, but also learning how project development works and how to adapt to constantly changing conditions as well as lack of sleep.">

Although he never drinks coffee, he does not mind working very late in the lab, mainly because he is a very impatient fella. Therefore, Sophie frequently had to discover cyclers filled with PCRs from 4.30 a.m. Florian is part of the delftibactin project where he worked on cloning strategies, primer design, amplification and assembly of DelRest and DelH. Furthermore, he worked on the recovery of gold from electronic waste and the characterization of delftibactin. Apart from iGEM and science, he can often be found on the badminton court, loves sports cars, formula 1 and The Simpsons. ">
