My name is Erica Soboslay. I am currently pursuing an Associate of Applied Sciences degree in Biotechnology and Molecular Biosciences. I plan to immediately pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Engineering, and ultimately obtain a PhD in Regenerative Medicine. I joined Glendale Community College’s iGEM team because, as an overzealous undergrad, I could not resist the wonderful opportunity to participate in student-led research in the lab. Beyond all the lab techniques I’ve learned this summer, I have also learned just how important it is to stay focused and determined. We’ve faced all sorts of setbacks, but found solutions and kept moving right along.

Summer 2013

Official Team Profile

Early 2013 Dr. Tuohy and Dr. Ziemba teamed up with Glendale Community College with hopes of forming an iGEM team for the 2013 collegiate division. After a rigorous application process, many candidates were selected, the schools first iGEM team had been selected. As of late spring, the team decided to work with Deinococcus radiodurans, as well as other species in the family. In late May, the team started working 4 days a week, and with the help of Dr. Tuohy and Dr. Ziemba, the team worked nonstop on trying to achieve the project goal.

    • Teresa LuPoneBiochemistry and Health Sciences
      My name is Teresa LuPone. I am a 27-year-old pre-med student in the Biotechnology program at Glendale Community College where I also am a Supplemental Instruction leader for General Biology I. I decided to join the IGEM team to have a fun educational research experience for the summer. I wanted to put the skills I've learned in the program to use and see a research project from inception to completion. My goal in my career is to be a physician that marries medical research with clinical practice to really help people get the cutting edge care that they need.
    • Cristina CastilloBiomedical Engineering
      My name is Cristina Castillo and I am currently majoring in Biomedical Engineering. I joined iGEM because I wanted to gain research experience in the field. I am transferring to University of Michigan to earn my Bachelor degree, Then, I want to attend Medical school to become a surgeon.The thing I learned most about this research project is that there is no such thing as failure, even though we did not always get what we were expecting, all our results made us discover something new that lead us to a solid project.
