Meet the Team

Hi there! We are tight knit group of passionate undergrads from Sydney, Australia. Without further ado let's introduce the team.

Bootcamp

Undergraduates

Rhys Keirle

G'day I'm Rhys, nice to meet you. I’m currently in my thrid year of a Science degree majoring in Biotechnology. Outside of uni I am a keen traveler, with plans to get my skis on in Japan later this year. I also have a passion for gymnastics and coach on a regular basis, with a little training, competition and judging on the side. As far as iGEM goes I look forward to getting my hands dirty in the lab, working on the wiki and engaging with the broader community about issues relating to Synbio, in particular through our Great Debate. See you in Boston!

Manan Shah

You would not be able to guess that about 3 and a half years ago I said that "I would never do science at university" considering all I talk about now is science. I am now a 3rd year Advanced Science student majoring in Molecular and Cell Biology. To minimise the non-science part of my life, or what some people would call a social life, I decided to do iGEM! As part of the team, I have mainly been in the lab and have been working on the wiki.

Kristen Perry

I’m a third year Advanced Science student majoring in Pathology, enjoying a little molecular biology adventure on the side. iGEM has been such an interesting opportunity for me and I’m    incredibly thankful for the support our team has received thus far. When I’m not in the lab (or pretending to know how to design things), I love to hike, climb and canyon

Mackenzie Labine-Romain

Hi I’m Mac and I’m in my last year of an Adv. Sci. Biotechnology and Microbiology degree. I have a debilitating fear of free time, so thought iGEM would be perfect for me. Turns out I was right!!! On a serious note, learning more about synthetic biology has drastically expanded my repertoire of science-based puns and pick up lines, and for this I am grateful… “Girl, are you E. coli? Because you’re a model organism.”

Isabelle Capell-Hattam

When Isabelle was 8 her mum banned her from doing science experiments in the kitchen. Now that she's moved out she does science where ever she feels like (though mostly in the lab)- take that mum.
I'm a 3rd year Adv. Sci. Molecular and Cell Biology major who has dabbled a bit with cholesterol regulation. I'm not really sure what role I play on the UNSW iGEM team, but I'm pretty darn good at making people use positive and negative controls.

Mentors

Daniel Winter

Ex eum soleat suscipit, his ceteros deterruisset ei. Mel evertitur comprehensam eu. Graecis accusamus ut eos. No natum copiosae ullamcorper vix, duo affert feugiat in, eam dicam tractatos gloriatur id. Vel probo definitiones eu.Minim temporibus persequeris quo eu. Equidem persequeris id mea, pro habeo augue error cu. No inani adolescens est. Vel fugit tractatos et. At quando commodo assentior usu.

Dr Chris Marquis

Chris received a B.Sc. degree in Chemistry and B.E degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Sydney. After working as a research assistant on a project sponsored by CSL and doing some travelling, he returned to complete a PhD at the University of Sydney in bioreactor design and operation for antibody producing mammalian cell lines. He was appointed as a Lecturer at the University of New South Wales in 1994 and promoted to Senior Lecturer in 2004.Chris’s current interests include the development of lipases for biodiesel production, understanding the regulation of soluble hydrogenase expression in Cupriavidius necator and in the development of recombinant enzymes for bioremediation applications. And iGEM.
