  <p align="justify">16 enthusiastic <a href="http://www.kuleuven.be/english"> KU Leuven </a> students who don’t mind working the whole summer join hands to kick some ass, iGEM style. It’s a very diverse team consisting of students with different backgrounds. There are 10 guys and 6 girls present with studies in biochemistry, (bio-)engineering, medicine, philosophy and others. The team is supported by former iGEMers and employees from all levels of the KU Leuven.</p>

   <p align = "justify">On this team page you can find the students and advisors of the team. They all worked really hard on <b><i>E.coligy</i>: plants with BanAphids</b>! Of course, we could only do this because off all the help we got from a lot of different people. We thanked them under 'attributions'. If you are being helped, you should also help. This is why we started some collaborations with other teams, including a very first, very small gathering of the Benelux iGEM teams. More about this can be found under collaborations.</p>

Luckily then, that he is on the Ethics team so that synthetic biology cannot slip by without being inspected in every way possible. Bert is a Chemical engineer who is fascinated by biochemistry and microbiological life. You can find him working hard at our iGEM office, on his beloved oscillator model.</p>

When she is not busy finding sponsors for the team, she will be busy in the lab and when she has tackled that, you could find her helping the education team out or doing a literature study. On top of that, Flore finds the time to enjoy running, travelling and baking! Showing you the power of Women in Science.</p>

Other hobbies are bragging about the fact that he lives in the same city (read: village) as cyclist Tom Boonen, taking his Gene Technology exam for yet another time and working on our wiki since he loves informatics as well. Actually, in retrospect, we don’t  really know why we hang out with him. Oh yeah, probably because he has the most contagious laugh ever known to mankind and he’s a really nice guy to be around.</p>

    <p align="justify">This guitar playing rock star is, yes you guessed it, also a Master student in Biochemistry and Biotechnology! Laurens likes to keep us entertained by singing and dancing iGEM medley versions of classics (if you would like to see him in action, join us on facebook or youtube for video uploads!) and in his spare time he likes to come to the lab and help out by singing to some pipets instead. Besides the common Belgian hobby of beer drinking, Laurens is also very interested in signal transduction and cell regulation.

    <p align="justify">Lukas is for sure the most energetic one of our team! Coordinating the wetlab and discussing (especially ethics) is one of his top favourite occupations this summer. Next to iGEM, this future doctor  is also vice-president of the Leuven student-researchers association (LVSO). Next to his 24h science job, he also likes to have fun with his friends and enjoys sausages at the BBQ, combined with some booze. In September, he is planning to go scouting in the Amazon forest.</p>

    <p align="justify">Michael is a bit of a mystery to us… First, we’re not sure what his REAL name is. Second, he followed a less than common academic trajectory: he is a graduate student of Medicine at Utrecht University and a graduate student of Philosophy at the KU Leuven. Third, there is no third yet… We have entrusted Michael to help provide an ethical review of our iGEM project where the leading question will be: Are ethics related to technological progress, via synthetic biology, or is it like a sermon on Sunday, totally separated from everyday reality? As the latest edition to our team, we are very happy that Michael is on board with us.</p>

When Pieter’s around, you always feel at ease. He is fan of rock music, a good movie and a cooled beer. Combine the last with any of the first two and he’s good to go.</p>

Sander has a really big temper, but in the weekends he dances all his troubles away, on events like Tomorrowland.

After his studies of bio-engineering, he did a PhD on the probiotic bacterium <I>Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG</I>. In this PhD, he studied the factors determining the probiotic effect of the <I>L. rhamnosus GG</I> in experimental colitis. Interdisciplinary studies were performed combining bacterial genetics and immunology. He always had and still has a profound interest in scientific research, especially linking applied microbiology, mucosal immunology and health issues. The opportunity to guide the students on this iGEM project in a rather new field of synthetic biology looked very appealing and fascinating but also challenging. He is therefore looking forward to work with such motivated students on this iGEM project.</p>

    <p align="justify">Meet Veerle De Wever, the KU Leuven iGEM team advisor in everything non-scientific such as sponsoring, administration, logistics, ....
 
-
Leuven is her hometown but she went abroad to obtain her PhD in genetics and biochemistry from the University of Vienna (Austria). While doing a postdoc in Canada, she came in contact with iGEM via the Calgary team of 2011, 2012. She was sold immediately and, upon her return to Leuven, more than happy to support the KU Leuven team.
 
-
Her research interests lie with signal transduction; particularly in response to environmental changes. Currently she is working as a postdoctoral researcher in the lab of Prof. Dr. Mathieu Bollen (<a href="http://gbiomed.kuleuven.be/english/research/50000618">Dept of Cellular and Molecular Medicine</a>) on protein phosphatases and their roles as master metabolic regulators in health and disease.</p>

iGem

Secret garden

Congratulations! You've found our secret garden! Follow the instructions below and win a great prize at the World jamboree!


  • A video shows that two of our team members are having great fun at our favourite company. Do you know the name of the second member that appears in the video?
  • For one of our models we had to do very extensive computations. To prevent our own computers from overheating and to keep the temperature in our iGEM room at a normal level, we used a supercomputer. Which centre maintains this supercomputer? (Dutch abbreviation)
  • We organised a symposium with a debate, some seminars and 2 iGEM project presentations. An iGEM team came all the way from the Netherlands to present their project. What is the name of their city?

Now put all of these in this URL:https://2013.igem.org/Team:KU_Leuven/(firstname)(abbreviation)(city), (loose the brackets and put everything in lowercase) and follow the very last instruction to get your special jamboree prize!

On this team page you can find the students and advisors of the team. They all worked really hard on E.coligy: plants with BanAphids! Of course, we could only do this because off all the help we got from a lot of different people. We thanked them under 'attributions'. If you are being helped, you should also help. This is why we started some collaborations with other teams, including a very first, very small gathering of the Benelux iGEM teams. More about this can be found under collaborations.
