Gustaf Edman
Age 22, Bachelors in Biotechnology 3rd year.
Gustaf is a really competitive person. Competitions bring him both joy and motivation. This fall Gustaf has started his master’s program in biotechnology, with specialization in Biomedicine and Biotechnology. At the age of 16, Gustaf performed his first genetic modification by inserting a GFP-gene in E. coli, but the interest in biotechnology didn’t really flourish until he participated in iGEM 2014. Outside the lab Gustaf enjoys experimenting with cooking and brewing.
