I'm a senior Biochemistry major at UMD. Outside of my work in iGEM, I study the characteristics of a DNA looping protein. I love reading manga, watching professional sports (Go Pats!), and following the global stock market. I recently visited India last winter and just returned from a trip to Germany in July. After graduation I hope to enter into an MD/PhD program.

I am a senior Neurobiology and Physiology major, with a Technology Entrepreneurship minor. I joined iGEM this spring because of its fast-paced, multidisciplinary, and problem solving nature. In addition to research, I am the founder of SuperScore, Inc, and serves on the national board of Kids Are Scientists Too. I hope to complete a MD/MBA someday. On the side, I enjoy boxing, parkour, and reading.

"I'm a little cheMOIST right now."

A member of the Integrated Life Sciences Honors College, I am heavily involved in the design of various components of the team’s PCR machine. This is my second research experience and first wet-lab experience. Outside iGEM, I am a member of the University of Maryland Gymkana Troupe and have an almost eerie obsession with Rubik’s cubes and Natalie Dormer.

Neurobiology

Hi I'm Juhye. I'm a sophomore Neurobiology/Physiology and Nutritional Science double major, planning on going to medical school to become either a dermatologist or a pediatric oncologist Other than iGEM, I'm currently part of another research team on campus focusing on a support program for Korean breast cancer patients. In my free time I enjoy dancing, reading, and watching way too many crime shows in one sitting while consuming mac and cheese. Cheese is my favorite type of food.

Bioengineering

Hi, I'm a sophomore bioengineering major at the University of Maryland. While I am not sure, at this point in time, what exactly I plan to do in the future, I hope that experiences like iGEM will help me to find my interests and give me more exposure to the many careers related to biology. Outside of school, I enjoy running and keeping up with track & field. I also enjoy doing kungfu (martial arts) and just recently started indoor rock climbing this summer. Basically, I love doing sports.

Neurobiology

I am a sophomore majoring in Physiology & Neurobiology and on the pre-med track. I might consider pursuing obstetrics in the future. I would like to travel and apply my knowledge to developing countries or disaster relief. Beyond that, I have interests in nutrition and business. I am a student photographer for the Honors College and play on the Women's Ultimate Frisbee Team. My favorite way to spend my free time is staying active in nature, such as jogging or doing adventure courses.

 <p align="right">I am a senior at the University of Maryland researching mechanosensitive channels in V. cholerae. When I'm not in the lab, you can find me wandering organic farms trying to find my spirit animal or exploring the rocky paths of the local Billy Goat Trail along the Potomac River. In addition to basic scientific research, I am interested in science education and policy and plan to work in that arena after earning my PhD.
