Laura

I will soon be entering the final year of my Biochemistry degree, but hope to continue in the field to a higher degree qualification. It is my ultimate aim to work within the industry of biotechnology. As far as hobbies go, I play both the clarinet and flute and I enjoy reading in my spare time. I contribute to multiple tasks within team Kent, but I can be noted for my organisation skills. In which I am able to help keep the lab notes and paperwork in line.




Michael

Hey, I'm Michael. I'm studying BSc Biomedical Science whilst being a professor in awesomeness, alongside competing in iGem. It's not easy.
I have a huge interest in synthetic biology, and support the idea of it. "Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail" (Ralph Waldo Emerson). Being at the forefront of synthetic biology is a unique and amazing opportunity, and being a part of such a huge community where everyone has their own ideas is really inspiring, and I'd like to wish everyone the best of luck (and commiserations for when they lose to us)! :)

Rathu

My name is Rathaven Gunaratnarajah and I'm a third year biomedical scientist.

Upon completion of my biomedical science degree, I hope to do a postgraduate degree in medicine and qualify as a doctor.

In my free time I enjoy running, cycling and swimming.







David

Hi, I’m David, and I’ll soon be starting the final year of my biomedical science degree here at Kent. On finishing, I currently hope to either do a masters or go straight to work in industry, ideally in an as yet undecided biomedical field. In my free time, I enjoy going to the gym, watching sports, and spending time with my friends. Also, I’m loving my time working for our university’s first iGEM team. The people I’m working with are great and being part of the worldwide iGEM community really is a unique privilege. I’m amazed generally by the possibilities that synthetic biology holds for our future, and now genuinely hope that I can integrate it at some point with my future career after iGEM.



Kara

Hi I'm Kara Stubbs, I've just finished the second year of my degree (BSc Biochemistry) and I'm moving into the final year with the hope to go on to do an MSc in Bio-engineering or Biochemistry.

I originate from South-West London and now reside in Canterbury.

My hobbies include hiking, gaming (tabletop or pc) and pretending to be a computer programmer hence why I'm the biggest contributor to this wiki.


Instructors:

Dr Mark Shepherd

Dr Wei-Feng Xue

I am Dr. Wei-Feng Xue and I am one of the instructors for the undergraduate iGem team Kent. Currently I am a Lecturer in Chemical Biology at the School of Biosciences at the University of Kent. My research interests include supramolecular protein assembly, protein folding and misfolding, amyloid and prions. Having a long-standing interest and expertise in protein chemistry and modelling, I am excited to be part of the iGem synthetic biology community at a part of Team Kent.
