Alex Bates

BSc Neuroscience. Being a first year neuroscience student, I was keen to combine my newfound neurobiological knowledge with my nascent interest in synthetic biology. My role is to ground the project in good neuroscience, and conduct wet-lab, bioinformatics and neuroethics work. For me, iGEM is an opportunity to conceive of something truly meaningful and help bring it, quite literally, to life.
