Revision as of 13:18, 4 October 2013
This is the third year a team from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) is participating
in the iGEM competition. Our team consists of five students with background in Biotechnology, Molecular Medicine
and Medical Technology. Mostly our collective background is in molecular biology colored with biophysics,
immunology and biotechnology. We have four advisors with different specialities! Rahmi is our lab-GOD and
has all the answers. Eivind gives us money and inspiration, Martin is our GFP-expert and Gunvor with her
past iGEM team experience has been a lot of help! We are naive students that want to come up with crazy ideas
that supervisors are to experienced to consider an opportunity. Our project this year is HIGH-risk and it was almost immediately clear to us that this was what we wanted to do this year. Considering the time-limit of iGEM it was an ambitious project and had everything gone as planned and expected we could have reached our goal. We still believe the project has potential and should not be abandoned. We'we all enjoyed working as a team and learned tons about synthetic biology and the potential this field has feels unlimited! We have had a lot of fun, the life of a scientist is like a rollercoaster of up's and down's but the excitement and curiosity of research will always be a strong motivator!
