<p>I joined iGEM because of a Terry Talk by a past iGEM member, who described the elegance of synthetic biology and the need to create standardized parts. That moment on, I was hooked into iGEM and its limitless potential. Outside from lab work and reading "binders full of journal articles", I enjoy watching hockey and maintaining my vegetable garden. Occasionally, I enjoy swimming and hiking.</p></td>

<p>Oh hi, didn't see you there. Come, take a seat, and let us speak of biology. I first heard of Igem, through a friend back in 2009. However, at the the time I thought he was crazy. "E. Coli cultures lighting up like traffic lights!?" I said, "bro, you been at the giggle-water again?" And he had been. Two years later, in 2011, I stumbled across the openwetware wiki while doing research for a project, and this led me to the igem page. After seeing the kinds of incredible projects that had been attempted over the years, I was hooked, and knew that I had to join the UBC team at the next available opportunity. As the only member of the igem team with a stylish goatee, It's important to remember that I will inevitably be seen as the "leader" because of it, and as such how the other members of the team look up to me, and how my actions reflect upon the team as a whole.  </p></td>

<p>One of the most interesting things I've gained from school is an understanding of how to model physical systems. I am excited for iGEM since provides an interesting opportunity to create models as well as learn more about biological systems. When not sitting in front of a computer screen, I enjoy golfing, playing tennis, skiing, hiking, and pretty much most things outside. </p></td>

<h5>2nd year Microbiology and Immunology</h5>

<p>I first heard about iGEM when I was in high school and ever since I wanted to be part of it. For me this is a very exciting opportunity. I can’t wait to make some awesome bacteria! I moved to Canada 2 years ago from Germany. Now I am really enjoying Vancouver. My favourite thing to do here is skiing in winter; I can’t wait for next season. Besides microbiology I am interested in marine biology. Through scuba diving I fell in love with the beautiful underwater world. On campus you can find me either in the lab, at the gallery or at the pool napping. But if there is something you should know about me is that I love travelling and living in different places around the world, so this is definitely not my last stop. </p></td>

<h5>4th year Chemical and Biological Engineering, Bioprocess option</h5>

<p>I got interested in iGEM during a class presentation, but what really caught my attention is the opportunity for student driven innovative research. I was heavily involved in science fair during middle school and high school, and look forward to pursing team-lead innovative research again. A bit about myself: I love almost any water-sport, and would happily spend the rest of my life lounging about beaches and cottages, sailing and waterskiing in the sun until I develop arthritis or skin cancer, or both. A few random facts about myself: I hate bananas, I love the smell of incubators, I've been known to make super-heroes out of lab gloves, and I biked across North America two summers ago. My favourite piece of lab equipment is the vortex mixer; my goodness I could spend days playing with those things...</p></td>

<h5>3rd year Combined Honours in Computer Science and Biology</h5>

<p>I started a combined honours degree after discovering computer science in my first year at UBC.  Ever since, I have been exploring where the two subjects intersect in bioinformatics.  I joined the iGEM team after hearing about it through my Co-op job at the Hallam Lab, and I hope to contribute to the modelling and wiki while also learning microbiology concepts and lab technique.  In my spare time, I enjoy baking, cooking, camping, and knitting. </p></td>

<p>Having experienced being part of iGEM last year, I was inspired by the calibre of projects iGEM teams produced. I am excited to see what amazing things a new group of minds can accomplish at UBC. In addition to labwork, I hope to contribute to the human practices portion of the project - looking forward to creative paths down this road! My guilty pleasures include reading bad novels and baking large batches of cookies (and eating them).</p></td>

My research lies at the intersection of environmental engineering and microbiology, where we study the microbial ecology of biological phosphorus removal using metagenomic and functional genomic approaches. In my free time, I enjoy hockey, martial arts, and pretty much anything outdoors.</p></td>
