Hiraku Tokuma(Team Leader)

There are many things I find attractive about iGEM. For example, in iGEM we can give shape to the ideas that we created, interact with students from all over the world, and learn the basics of research. Although I am the leader of this year’s team, there have been many moments when my teammates helped me. I believe that I can achieve something great with them.

The reason I decided to participate in iGEM is that I wanted to acquire skills as a scientist and also compete with students from all around the world. I hope that this experience in iGEM will be helpful in the future.

Emi Fuse

iGEM has given me the opportunity to learn about biology and experience the world out of my field, which is mechanical engineering. It has also given me the chance to learn more about computer simulation. Through iGEM, I hope to do my best and communicate with various people around the world.

Jun Kawamura

I would like to experience as many interesting things as possible, while I am a student. That is why I’m now participating in iGEM. I am constructing parts for iGEM. I’m looking forward to talking to people from all over the world during the tournament.

Koji Abe

I’m glad that I joined this team. I believe that the experience in iGEM would be my life time treasure. I’m a student of Tokyo Institute of Technology, and I study biotechnology. However, I also wanted to study art, especially watercolor painting. After the tournament, I would like to draw pictures and watch a lot of movies all day long.
