Our Team


Hello world!
We are the 2013 iGEM team of Wuhan University. 7 senior students and 3 Junior students constitute of the main body of the team. But participating in iGEM is a comprehensive work, which can not be done without the indispensible help from our friends and guiders. Hereby we want to sincerely thanks:
  •       Kenji Adzuma, for his patient guiding of the enzymatic modeling.

  •       Yancheng Liu, for his marvelous programming and helps in processing data.

  •       Prof. David Liu and Vikram Pattanayak, for their generous providing of data for our Cas9 model.

  •       Kuanwei Sheng, Jiawei Hang, Wenxiong Zhou, Boxiang Wang, for their devotion in passing their experience and ideas about iGEM to us.

  •       Yao Yang, for his helpful assistance in revising the model.

  •       Siqing Wang, Jinhao Zou, Meng Zou, Yupei Wang, Bo Huang, Tengfei Ma, Shimeng Liu, Yun Huang, Liangliang Ji, Wenjia Gu, for their contributions to the brainstorm.

  •       Prof. Zhixiong Xie, Prof. Xiangdong Gao, Prof.Yu Chen and College of Life Science, WHU, for their continuous support.

You will not be forgotten.



Members


Zhaoren HE | Senior in Biological Sciences
Zhaoren is, no doubt, the coolest man in the team. He is now focuses his attention in system modeling and metabolic engineering of bio-diesel. He loves traveling, thinking and exchanging ideas with different people. Before his internship in Texas A&M, he organized the daily operation of the team. He also serves as one of the major experiment designers, the major typing labor and the only modeling guy.

Hangxing JIA | Senior in Biological Sciences
Hangxing ( also called the Gibsoner, as he prepares all reagent for gibson himself) is the one of the most reliable guys in the team. He loves learning new knowledge and appreciate new thoughts, as well as long-distance running and bodybuilding. He is the experiment leader of our team. After Zhaoren, he leads the team with Lei Y. and Yang L.

Yang LIU | Senior in Biological Sciences
Yang is our funny and optimistic buddy, the “laughs producer”. He has participated in a molecular virology lab for more than two years. His skill in experiment is indispensable. He is also the lab manager and diplomatist, who tackles with issues with our funder and keeps the experiment run. He never let us down.

Lei YANG | Senior in Biological Sciences
Lei is an active cooperator in the team. Enlightened by diverse experiences in both academic and social activities, he appreciates any potential chance of team work. Although he needs to work solely on another project in his lab at the same time, he has contributed a lot to the project.

Tong LIANG | Junior of College of Life Science
Tong loves biology with full enthusiasm. She believes synthetic biology can not only make her self feel delighted, but also enable people to live better, which is always her dream. She takes life in her own hands, endeavor to shape it into my own liking and learn from it. In the project, seven early construct of double promoter were done by her.

Zhaoning WANG | Junior of College of Life Science
Zhaoning is a little bit nerdy, at the first sight, but indeed a positive and active junior student. He is very amiable and humorous. He is also a true enthusiast of traditional Chinese music. Many of wet labs, say, the construction of dCas9 and gRNA vector, couldn’t be done without his help. He has also helped Yang to keep the lab organized during the summer.

Qin AN| Junior of College of Life Science
As his dictum “Love E.coli, love life”, Qin enjoys his lab routine. Driven by his inherent curiosity, he is interested in many fields of biology. Combing biology with computer science and mathematics is his ultimate dream, which drive him to join the team. He is the multi-role player, who contributed to wet labs, wiki and out human practice.

El psy congroo!     (┌・ω・)┌

Shaopeng LIU | Senior in Biological Sciences
Shaopeng is a responsible guy to be depending on in this team for his well-equipped knowledge as well as experimental skills of microbiology. Another daily work of Shaopeng is to competing with Yang LIU for more laughs. Having being addicted to historical events and traditional philosophy of China, he is always seeking for self-consummating.

Yan ZENG| Senior of College of Life Science
Yan is a the only bro minors in computer science in the team. He is now focusing on evolutionary genomics. He also boasts of having diverse knowledges in structural biology, neurobiology, programming, and artificial intelligence. He savors challenging and feed on obstacles. Without him, the website will never exist. Some of the early experiment is also designed by him.

Linyi TANG | Senior of College of Life Science
Linyi is the happiest girl in the word, as Zhaoren’s comment. She loves to be connected with friends. Spreading surprise and pleasure, she is the only one who knows how to draw in the team.. Working intensely with Zhaoren, she is the designer of the mascot, the website and the presentation.

BO HUANG |Senior of School of Public Health
Bo is majored in Preventive Medicine. Even though he is not skilled as other teammates in experiment, he shows his enthusiasm in Biology, in IGEM, in the team he belongs to. During the whole summer vacation, he worked as an internship in hospital in the daytime, and then worked as an experimental assistant in the night.

Meng ZOU| senior student from Medical School
Meng Zou, senior student from Medical School, Wuhan University. Although her department is far from our lab ,she decided to join the team right away as she get to know the idea of artificial biosystem. she is fascinated by the idea of doing something to change the world and she takes every chance to put it into practice. Despite her busy internship in a hospital, she completed her part of experiment with great passion and took an active part during our whole process.

Yao.YANG | Junior Student of College of Chemistry and Molecular Science
Greatly interested in the cutting-edge research of Biochemistry, especially the mechanism of action of protein and small chemicals, Yao has focused all his attention on checking the physical chemistry foundation of Zhaoren’s mathematical model, particularly the mechanism of enzyme catalysis. As the only guy whose major is chemistry, Yao is also responsible for advertising iGEM to the sophomore, even the freshmen in Chemistry College. Apart from interest in academic research, Yao, as a forward, loves playing soccer with energetic guys from different countries. He also likes to walk alone for a long time and just to enjoy this simple way to keep a slow pace of life.
Finally, just like the smiling face of his picture, he always smiles to other people and enjoy the happiness of helping each other in iGEM.

Jinhao Zou| Junior of College of Life Science
Jinhao is the youngest girl in our team. She is in the charge of human practice part, designed the style of team T-shits and hoodies. She always loses her mind in something of fantasy and wonders. Also great enthusiasm in microbiology, especially in synthetic biology. Our team becomes more good-looking with her contribution.

Zikou LIU | Senior of College of Life Science
He is the back black hand of the team, seldom showing up. But the light of his mind always shed out. He raised the idea of Cas9-gRNA oscillator, and convinced the team of the value of the short-cycle oscillator. Unfortunately, he can only wish our team good luck from Australia continent.

Siqing WANG| Junior Student of College of Chemistry and Molecular Science
Siqing Wang was absolutely a wonderfully talented idea provider during the whole IGEM progressing process. He donated his great effort to the early idea about converting gutter oil (recycling oil) into biodiesel by overexpressing Pseudomonas cepacia lipase in E.coli, and collected many information and put up suggestions on our projects.
