{{:Team:Heidelberg/Templates/StartPage|Team - Student members|Navi_left_Team}}
 
-
Also in 2013, a highly motivated team of 13 undergraduate students of the University of Heidelberg enrolled in programs of Molecular Biotechnology and Systems Biology, is taking up the challenge to compete with 222 other teams from all over the world. Find out more about our team members below!

==Ralf Beer - Mr. Sarcasm==
 
-
Ralf is a 3<sup>rd</sup> year bachelor student of Molecular Biotechnology at the University of Heidelberg. After an internship and 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, afterwards. In the iGEM project he is mainly involved in the domain shuffling wetlab subproject.

==Tania Christiansen - Mrs. Design==
 
-
Tania is a  2<sup>nd</sup> year bachelor student of the Heidelberg’s program of Molecular Biotechnology. 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 module shuffling project and put a lot of hours into the design and realization of the team's website. She would recommed joining an iGEM Team to anyone! Everyone experienced a steep learning curve, not only improving wetlab skills, but also learning how project development works and how to adapt to constantly changing conditions as well as lack of sleep.

==Konrad Herbst - Mr. Coffee==
 
-
Apart from participating in iGEM this summer, Konrad finished his Bachelor thesis in Molecular Biotechnology and is going to continue with his master studies in late autumn. He is not only curious about science and nature but also (computer) technology and engineering. For Konrad a good start in the morning strongly correlates with his first coffee, optimal applied in group with some of the other team members. The rest of the day mainly consists of experiments for the Indigoidine subproject or of computer work.

==Nikos Ignatiadis - Django Unchained==
 
-
Double majoring in Molecular Biotechnology and Mathematics, Nikos is very interested in interdisciplinary approaches to understanding biology. Previously, he applied this interdisciplinarity by working with constraints-based models of metabolism. Having also had experience with synthetic biology by designing a modular system for in-vivo mutagenesis, he is now very excited to join the iGEM team of Heidelberg. iGEM is a unique opportunity to put everything into practice in an environment promoting open science and collaborative effort. Nikos is also fascinated by the biology of Indigoidine, non-ribosomal peptides, as well as their modularity.

==Ilia Kats - The Force==
 
-
Ilia has received his Bachelor's degree in Biosciences at the University of Heidelberg, where he is now studying Systems Biology in his 2<sup>nd</sup> master semester. As a Linux user, he has contributed to several open source projects, most notably KDE NetworkManager and simpleSTORM, gaining experience in C++ programming and software design. He did several internships in Heidelberg's labs over the past years, working both in bioinformatics as well as molecular biology. And yes, he is a nerdy geek. So don’t mess with him or your laptop might suddenly refuse to cooperate.

==Johanna Meichsner - Ms. Athletic==
 
-
Johanna is currently studying Molecular Biotechnology in the 6<sup>th</sup> bachelor semester in Heidelberg. During the past three years, she completed different internships (3 in total) in different laboratories all over the world (Berlin and Bogotá). Besides the fascinating theme of Life Science, she is hooked on sports like climbing, running, swimming and many more. She also likes reading various kinds of books and journals and cooking vegetarian food! Hanna is a great lab mate, stubborn enough to make anything work.

==Nils Kurzawa - Ilia's Padawan==
 
-
Nils just finished his 4<sup>th</sup> bachelor semester in Molecular Biotechnology. He is fascinated by the idea of iGEM and Synthetic Biology, as he likes the idea of standardizing biological parts and being able to engineer biological systems. He is pretty excited to support the team as well in the software project as in one of the wet lab projects. He hopes to have a nice summer with all the team members and looks forward to learn a lot more about Synthetic Biology, programming and organizing own projects. Nils is good fun and always makes you smile, whether on purpose or not. Apart from science, Nils is interested in all kinds of sports, photography and making music.

==Sophie Rabe - Ms. Sunshine==
 
-
Sophie just received her Bachelor’s degree in Molecular Biotechnology at the University of Heidelberg and is going to continue with the Master’s program in autumn. She has already done several internships and has been working as a student research assistant at the medical faculty of Heidelberg for over a year. She is very happy to improve her laboratory skills when it comes to genetics and the handling of bacteria, as she has only been working in other research areas so far.
 
-
Furthermore iGEM gives her the opportunity to experience and conquer the challenges of planning such a big project and the organisation of a team. One of her hobbies is making music - especially in a band or one of the weekly iJAM-sessions. As part of the Delftibactin project Sophie's main focus is on constructing the DelRest plasmid.

==Anja Riedel - The Pup==
 
-
Anja is studying Molecular Biotechnology, too. During iGEM, she not only became a coffee drinker, but also found out how long she actually can survive with a maximum of 6 h of sleep per day. If she is not in the computer cabinet or in the lab, she is at the phone, acquiring money - or trying to. She is really happy to do the fifth semester of her Bachelor's degree, because there will be a lot of internships. She hopes to be able to use the experiences she made during iGEM.

==Joshua Sachs - The Firefighter==
 
-
Joshua received recently his Bachelor's degree in Molecular Biotechnology at the University of Heidelberg. At several institutes and companies, he gained practical wet lab know-how and bioinformatics skills. He is very dedicated to the field of synthetic biology and the development of new integrated systems for the design of novel applications. Being in charge of a whole project with all its challenges is a great experience for him, which he would not want to miss. Following iGEM, he is planning to travel to several countries around the globe until proceeding with his studies.

==Julia Schessner - The Bee==
 
-
As many other team members, Julia just received her Bachelor's degree in Molecular Biotechnology. She is always optimistic and friendly, which is reflected in her colorful lifestyle. For her, iGEM is the first scientific competition ever and the intensive team work and the high expectations are really motivating. Since her major was bioinformatics and because she felt like skipping bench work for a while, she is involved in the software tools and the homepage design. This means lots of coffee and heavy metal music to keep her brain running. She already learned at lot in this competition by now, which she will be able to apply in her future work - for her personally it was already worth participating!

==Florian Schmidt - The Optimus Prime(r)==
 
-
Flo just started his 5<sup>th</sup> bachelor semester in Molecular Biotechnology and is enthusiastic to unveil the opportunities of synthetic biology. Although he doesn't drink coffee, he does not mind working very late in the lab, mainly because he is very impatient. 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".
