Our team is unified by the shared goal of providing significant achievements within the field of synthetic biology.</p> |
− | <p> | + | <p style="text-align: justify;">The project officially started with an introductory iGEM meeting in January, facilitated by our supervisor Chris Workman. From then on our team met weekly with idea development until Mads and Pernille, came up with our project idea. Many months of project planning, fundraising, lab work and coding have lead to the product we now present for you. <strong>All laboratory work and presented activities documented on this wiki were performed by our team members and the three high school students unless stated otherwise. </strong></p> |
+ | |||
+ | <p style="text-align: justify;">We would like to thank our advisors who assisted us during the whole project and have provided invaluable advice and feedback. We would also express our thanks to everyone else who has supported us over the course project! Thank you for your expertise, facilities and materials. A full list of attributions can be seen below. </p> | ||

<p>Viktor is not like most freshmen's in college. He has already won a young research competition, and on the DTU iGEM team 2015 he has been working hard mastering new methods in the laboratory from the first day. Viktor has done a lot of the lab work; and he was the first to succeed in the team at making our chassis Bacillus competent. Outside the lab, Viktor plays in a jazz band and then he would like to specialise in algae research.</p> | <p>Viktor is not like most freshmen's in college.

<p>Having a wide range of interests, being on the iGEM team was a perfect opportunity for Karolina to combine some of her passions like her interest in synthetic biology, innovative start-ups and sharing knowledge in an international team. Originally from Poland, she has already a lot of international experience, having studied in Germany, England and now Denmark. Karolina was not only actively involved in our human practice activities, but also holds the record for the highest DNA concentrations in miniprepping and successful Gibson assembling.</p> | <p>Having a wide range of interests, being on the iGEM team was a perfect opportunity for Karolina to combine some of her passions like her interest in synthetic biology, innovative start-ups and sharing knowledge in an international team.

<p>Linas is our expert within software development and the only non-biologically related student in our iGEM team. As he likes challenges, he decided to understand some Synthetic Biology problems and find some solutions for it. Linas tired to bridge between Computational Sciences and Biology, by creating a software enabling an easy design of oligos that would change a specificity of NRPSs, and be easy in use within scientic environment. <br /> | <p>Linas is our expert within software development and the only non-biologically related student in our iGEM team.

<p>Tobias is a life-saver for most of the team members. He kept track of the fundraising, organises our social events, and designed our board to keep track of ongoing activites in the lab and on the project. Tobias also has the fantastic ability to always be happy and bring beers to event. When he went to China for month to study public communications, there was no Friday beer. Besides all the organisational work, Tobias studies Pharmacutical Design and Engineering, where he focusses on entrepenuership and project development.</p> | <p>Tobias is a life-saver for most of the team members.

Revision as of 14:21, 16 September 2015
The Team
The DTU iGEM Team 2015 is composed of a group of ten motivated DTU students dedicated to exploring and sharing their passion for science. The team includes both Bachelor and Master students with a diverse set of nationalities and educational backgrounds in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Bioinformatics, Pharmaceutical engineering and Computer Sciences. Many of the team members are highly engaged in internationally recognized research groups, leading biotech companies or student organizations, where they have obtained valuable competences within science, programming, project management and communication. Our team is unified by the shared goal of providing significant achievements within the field of synthetic biology.
The project officially started with an introductory iGEM meeting in January, facilitated by our supervisor Chris Workman. From then on our team met weekly with idea development until Mads and Pernille, came up with our project idea. Many months of project planning, fundraising, lab work and coding have lead to the product we now present for you. All laboratory work and presented activities documented on this wiki were performed by our team members and the three high school students unless stated otherwise.
We would like to thank our advisors who assisted us during the whole project and have provided invaluable advice and feedback. We would also express our thanks to everyone else who has supported us over the course project! Thank you for your expertise, facilities and materials. A full list of attributions can be seen below.
High School Students
Maja
Last year High School student
Maja is doing her last year of high school and finds biotechnology, chemistry, math, and sports very interesting. The iGEM project has made her aware of new possibilities and challenges of synthetic biology and has introduced her into a lot of new techniques and instruments. Maja has been helping with Minipreps and colony PRCs for the past months.
When Maja is not in class, lab or at work, you can find her at soccer stadium where she spends a lot of hours doing tricks, dribbles, and headers.
Nicolai Jørgensen
High School student
Nikolaj is the youngest member of our team. He is currently doing his second year of High School, with a focus on Biotechnology and Math. He actively participated in the wet and dry lab activities. Besides helping in the lab with PCR, running gel electrophoresis and DNA purification, he supported fund-raising and wiki-design.
When Nikolai is not thinking about a better way of optimizing oligos for our MAGE protocol, he enjoys spending time with his friends.
Thea
Last year High School student
Thea is currently doing her last year of High School, with a focus on Biotechnology, Chemistry, Math and English. Her primary goal of participating in the project has been learning 'as much as she could'. By helping in the lab, she has had the opportunity to discover new methods, and gain confidence in applying methods with which she was already familiar.
When Thea is not in lessons or in the lab listening to the relentless sound of the nanodrop machine, she is either playing or listening to music with her friends.
Advisors and Supervisors
Christopher Workman
Associate professor, Ph.D.,
Regulatory genomics,
DTU System Biology
Chris is the team's main instructor who has put together the team and has given advice from the beginning with brainstorming project ideas until now that the project nears its completion.
Mogens Kilstrup
Associate professor, Ph.D.
Metabolic signalling and regulation,
DTU Systems Biology
Mogens has been a great help with theoretical and practial work in the laboratory especially with his knowledge on gram-negative bacteria. He and Jan have also made their laboratory available for our team to use. We are grateful for the help he has given us with planning of experiments and the practial implementation.
Jan Martinussen
Associate professor, Ph.D.,
Metabolic signalling and regulation,
DTU Systems Biology
Jan has been a great help with theoretical and practial work in the laboratory especially with his knowledge on gram-negative bacteria. He and Mogens have also made their laboratory available for our team to use. We are grateful for the help he has given us with planning of experiments and the practial implementation.
