Adrian plays a major part in many fields: finding sponsors, research, lab work – simply everything! During all these things he stays in a positive mood and keeps his controlled chaos in check, even though sometimes this postive mood swings into desperation – which seems to be the norm for lab work. In his free time he often visits Ireland and the open ocean, even if only mentally. Adrian was born in Erlangen and raised in Kempten and came to the FAU in 2010. Right now he does his masters program in Cell and Molecular Biology.</p> | Adrian plays a major part in many fields: finding sponsors, research, lab work – simply everything!

Nadine is a bright and perpetually cheerful little live wire. Apart from finding sponsors and doing voluntary work at the animal shelter, she always has the time to work in the lab. To the great delight of us all (the advisors, instructors, TAs and the team of course), she always brings us homemade treats! Without her, we definitely would be pushing our limits with too much coffein and too little food. Nadine was born and raised in Nuremberg, Germany and came to the FAU in 2011. Right now she is attending the Master's program in Cell and Molecular Biology.</p> | Nadine is a bright and perpetually cheerful little live wire.

Team
We are the first iGEM team from the Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nuremberg. The participation was initiated by three students of the Master's program Cell and Molecular Biology: Adrian, Filip and Sabrina. Fascinated by the idea, five additional students joined the team. Following their lead, the instructors Prof. Uwe Sonnewald and PhD student Marlene Pröschel of the Division of Biochemistry (Department of Biology) were convinced to support us. Early during our planning process we decided to use the model organism of S. cerevisiae, which brought us together with Prof. Christian Koch of the Division of Biochemistry.
Who are we?
PI
- Prof. Uwe Sonnewald
Professor Dr. Uwe Sonnewald is the head of the Division of Biochemistry. He turned out to be the first person to support our iGEM vision. Giving us our lab spaces and getting the Department of Biology behind our project was an enormous help to us. Regularly, he checks up on us to ask if everything is going all right. In addition, he helped us with lab materials and financially. Through Professor Sonnewald we had the chance to work with Marlene Pröschel, who was a huge help in the lab. At the moment his main research is concentrated at the Plant Biochemistry and Biotechnology group. These groups investigate the regulation of the primary metabolism of plants and try to improve biotechnological approaches of crops.
Instructor
- Marlene Pröschel
Marlene Pröschel, a PhD student in the Division of Biochemistry, introduced us to the different labs and surroundings. She was our go to person when it came to any questions, whether they were theoretical or practical. Moreover, she lent us a hand in the lab on some occasions.
Advisor
- Prof. Christian Koch
Professor Dr. Christian Koch of the Division of Biochemistry was our specialist when it came to yeast knowledge. While always staying interested as well as enthusiastic, he also provided us with more lab space and materials. Prof. Koch's never ending expertise gave us great insight to homologous recombination, promotors, plasmids and literature. At the moment his main research is concentrated at the Fungal Cell Biology group. They examine the regulators of cell division of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the interaction of phytopathogen fungi with their host.
