    var FISAL = "I fell in love with iGEM two years ago when I stumbled upon a Terry Talk by a past iGEM member. My fascination and curiosity spiraled out of control and the next thing I knew, I was giving a presentation to students in my program about the potentials of synthetic biology. However, much to my dismay I was unable to join the iGEM team that summer due to commitments with my Co-op program. This year I am very excited to be a part of the UBC 2013 team. I have no idea where our project will take us but I'm sure it will be a thrilling ride. A little about myself: I am a self proclaimed outdoors man and I have the beard to prove it! In particular, I enjoy backcountry skiing, rock climbing, and backpacking, but I am always keen to try new things. When I am in the city I enjoy dancing, music, and eating. My spirit animal is a ferret and I cant think of a favorite piece of lab equipment; I love all my children equally.";
-var JOE = "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.";

-var DAN = "I first heard of iGEM through a friend back in 2009. At the the time, I thought he was crazy. "E. Coli cultures lighting up like traffic lights!?". 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. My interests include growing and showing off stylish goatees.";

 var ANNA = "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 two 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. Aside from 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.";
