Why did you choose to participate in iGEM?
-To gain valuable experience in fundamental laboratory work, as well as in working in a project environment. Of course, the social aspect of it also played a big part in my decision.

When/Why did your interest in bioengineering start?
-My interest in bioengineering began in my last year in high school, when I did my final project. I got the chance to work at Stockholm University and explore how apoptosis works at tumor human nervcells. It wasn’t exactly bioengineering, but later on I discovered that there was a way to combine my interests in building stuff and cell biology, bioengineering!

Why did you choose to participate in iGEM?
-I thought it sounded interesting and that it would be a good occupation during the summer. It is also similar to possible jobs in the future so it's a good idea to try it out.

When/Why did your interest in bioengineering start?
-This subject has interested me for along time (that's why I started studying at the X-program) and this interest has unsuprisingly grown even more this iGEM-summer!

Does your primary interest lie in engineering or in biology/biotechnology?
-Both

Why did you choose to participate in iGEM?
-I figured iGEM would be a fun and interesting way to spend the summer. Which it really turned out to be! When you participate in iGEM you learn alot and laugh even more.

When/Why did your interest in bioengineering start?
-I have always been interested in understanding the world. So my fascination with science overall has been there for as long as I can recall.

Does your primary interest lie in engineering or in biology/biotechnology?
-Both.

Why did you choose to participate in iGEM?
-iGEM is a great opportunity to gain experience in the field of synthetic biology. To be given the resources to pursue a project designed by ourselves is invaluable no matter how you look upon it. Be it the increased confidence in a laboratory environment, project design or to feel the weight of our results and planning.

When/Why did your interest in bioengineering start?
-I have always been interested in biology but my interest in bioengineering didn't start until I happened to come across bioengineering when applying to university.

Does your primary interest lie in engineering or in biology/biotechnology?
-Biology.

Why did you choose to participate in iGEM?
-I chose to participate in iGEM after hearing of a former iGEM-project that sought to decrease the desertification. The thought of students contributing to science this way was very intriguing to me.
