Team:Heidelberg/Team

     <div id="TaniaChristiansen" class="teamimage" data-name="Tania Christiansen - Mrs. Design" data-desc="Tania is a 2^nd year bachelor student of the Heidelberg’s program of Molecular Biotechnology. She has done a few internships so far but wanted to 'do her thing', which is why she joined the iGEM Team. Afterwards, she is going to spend a few weeks in the US for an internship and then studying in Denmark for one semester. Tania worked on the synthetic peptide and indigoidine tagging subproject and contributed a lot of hours into the design of the team’s website and our shiny introduction video on NRPS, she realized. She would recommend joining an iGEM Team to anyone! Everyone experienced a steep learning curve, not only improving wet lab skills, but also learning how project development works and how to adapt to constantly changing conditions as well as lack of sleep.">

     <div id="IliaKats" class="teamimage" data-name="Ilia Kats - The Force" data-desc="Ilia has received his Bachelor`s degree in Biosciences at the University of Heidelberg, where he is now studying Systems Biology in his 2<sup>nd</sup> master semester. As a Linux user, he has contributed to several open source projects , most notably KDE NetworkManager and simpleSTORM, gaining experience in C++ programming and software design. He did several internships in Heidelberg`s labs over the past years, working both in bioinformatics as well as molecular biology. Ilia had the initial idea for our project and inspired all of us with his dream of easy and efficient recycling of gold. He also came up with the concept to exploit the NRPS modularity for setting up the NRPSDesigner. Besides all of his brainwork, Ilia was indispensable for all the wetlab work of the different subprojects. And yes, he is a nerdy geek. So don’t mess with him or your laptop might suddenly refuse to cooperate. ">

     <div id="NilsKurzawa" class="teamimage" data-name="Nils Kurzawa - Ilia's Padawan" data-desc="Nils just finished his 4^th bachelor semester in Molecular Biotechnology. He is fascinated by the idea of iGEM and synthetic biology, as he likes the idea of standardizing biological parts and being able to engineer biological systems. He is pretty excited to support the team in the software project as well as in one of the wet lab projects. He is having a great summer with all the team members and learned a lot about synthetic biology, programming and organizing own projects. Nils wrote the main javascripts and css stylesheets used on this wiki developed the idea of the main page and subsequently designed the templates for all other pages. Nils is good fun and always makes you smile, whether on purpose or not. Apart from science, Nils is interested in all kinds of sports, photography and making music.">

     <div id="JohannaMeichsner" class="teamimage" data-name="Johanna ‘Hanna’ Meichsner - Ms. Athletic" data-desc="Hanna is currently studying Molecular Biotechnology in the 6^th bachelor semester in Heidelberg. During the past three years, she completed different internships (3 in total) in different laboratories all over the world from Berlin and Bogotá. Besides the wet lab work on the delftibactin subproject, Hanna is the creative director, producer and technician behind the RFC 99 & 100 Peptide Production Pipeline video. Besides the fascinating theme of life science, she is hooked on sports like climbing, running, swimming and many more. She also likes reading various kinds of books and journals and cooking vegetarian food! Hanna is a great lab mate, stubborn enough to make anything work.">

     <div id="FlorianSchmidt" class="teamimage"data-name="Florian Schmidt - The Optimus Prime(r)" data-desc="Flo just started his 5^th bachelor semester in Molecular Biotechnology and is enthusiastic to unveil the opportunities of synthetic biology. Although he never drinks coffee, he does not mind working very late in the lab, mainly because he is a very impatient fella. Therefore, Sophie frequently had to discover cyclers filled with PCRs from 4.30 a.m. Florian is part of the delftibactin project where he worked on cloning strategies, primer design, amplification and assembly of DelRest and DelH. Furthermore, he worked on the recovery of gold from electronic waste and the characterization of delftibactin. Apart from iGEM and science, he can often be found on the badminton court, loves sports cars, formula 1 and The Simpsons. ">

     <div id="PhilippWalch" class="teamimage"data-name="Philipp Walch - The Exprimator" data-desc="Philipp also just finished his 4^th bachelor semester in Molecular Biotechnology. But since this obviously does not occupy him fully (©reative input by Fanny - due to lacking constructiveness when writing about oneself in third person), he also studies Mathematics. As he tasted blood in several internships in genomics and proteomics all over the world (Heidelberg, Potsdam, Stanford and Berkeley), he is very excited to participate in iGEM. Philipp is always cheerful and friendly, no matter how confusing things are in the lab. He is an important part of the synthetic peptides and indigoidine-tag subproject. Hereby, he learned to use his strengths for a team and to develop parts of a project from the first scratch to the final validation. Outside the lab, he is a huge fan of playing chess, making music - either on the piano or by singing - debating and philosophy. ">
