I am Jan Kramer, a Computer Science student. For this project I’m working on modeling the membrane on the computer to make predictions on how it will function. In addition I also help with building our website and other IT stuff. In my free time I enjoy playing games and reading.

Bam! I am the team’s designer, Randy. I can usually be found pacing around the room eating lettuce from a plastic bag. I'm responsible for our logo, t-shirts, website, presentation and the design of our card game. I don’t sleep. By the way, I study computer science and am interested in almost everything.

My name is Harm Ruesink. I’m responsible for arranging the Boston trip, raising funds and doing lab work. I joined iGEM because the idea of creating and performing our own experiments in an multidisciplinary team appealed to me. I am doing a master’s degree in Biomedical Sciences. In my spare time I enjoy running and binge-watch series!

My name is Hanneke Siebe and I am a second year Chemistry student. I am the secretary, worked in the lab a lot and am responsible for Human Practices. In my free time I enjoy listening to music and playing flute. I like about iGEM that you work together with other people crazy enough to voluntarily spend the summer locked up in a lab, researching your own idea.

I am the chairman of iGEM 2015 Groningen. My main task is to direct the wild ideas and plans of other team members in such a way that we will reach our goals. Next to handling the whip, I also enjoy handling my hockey stick and squash racket. Currently I am mastering in biomedical sciences.

Hi there, I am Wiebrand de Boer and vice-chair of iGEM Groningen. I study chemistry and molecular biology and will finish both bachelors in the coming year. I try to generate loads of ideas and am responsible for acquisition, which turned out to be difficult. Finally, I was choosen to present our project in Boston.

My name is Atze van Stralen and I am currently majoring in Molecular Life Sciences with a minor in Chemistry. Other than doing the research itself, I am also the treasurer for the iGEM team. When I am not working at the university, I like to read interesting stuff and meet boring people.

Hello everybody, I’m Bente. I spend my time on outreach and lab work. The coolest thing about iGEM is doing something different. As we all have different backgrounds we can learn lots of new things. I finished my bachelor in biomedical engineering this year and next year I will start with my masters. Beside my study I like to read and play soccer.

I am Marieke and I am the lab manager of iGEM Groningen, organizing our laboratory so everyone can use what he or she needs. After I got my bachelor in applied science, I started the master Molecular Biology at the University at Groningen. With this awesome team and project I want to broaden my knowledge about synthetic biology.

Hello, I am Timon. In the lab I mainly work on measuring membrane potentials and finding the right conditions for biofilm growth. Outside the lab I am responsible for coordinating work on the wiki and facilitating communication between the software developers and the rest of the team. In my spare time I do some acquisition, which is a lot of fun.
