Team:KU Leuven/Team
Team
This year, our team consists of 13 students who are dedicating their summer to work on the iGEM project. The numerous late night meetings organised from the beginning of the year 2015 were the perfect opportunity to create an optimal atmosphere to discuss the possible iGEM projects and to boost the team spirit. The team consist of students from 5 different faculties with different backgrounds, perspectives, nationalities and languages. The diversity of the team gives us strength and widens our horizons. We are all bounded by our enthusiasm for science and research and each of us possesses the courage to face big challenges. Additionally, we will be supported by previous iGEM’mers and employees from all levels of the KU Leuven University. The previous KU Leuven teams have set high standards to benchmark ourselves against. We will do our best to carry on this trend in the 2015 iGEM competition!

Laetitia
Our busy bee
Keep calm and build a pattern
The business tycoon
Spam, spam, spam!
Matlab is always on my side
Let the bacteria grow!
Our beautiful sales lady
Let's photoshop everything
The answer to everything is: try Google
Wants lots and lots of data
The center of everything
Before one can transform bacteria, one must first transform himself
First on the screen, now in real life
Astrid does many things, she started as a bookworm who shaped our plasmid, worked in the lab, made plans for the symposium and visited schools to explain children about synthetic biology.
Eline started working on gaining sponsors for our project. Then she made the collaboration with Toulouse possible by creating a diffiusion model in COMSOL. In the end she helped with the wiki.
Frederik's background in economics made him the perfect guy to acquire sponsors for our project. He created the survey. He explored several applications and wrote an economical report about it.
Ines discovered the world of social media to inform people about our project. When she isn't spamming people she can be found in the lab or behind her books.
Jasper is the brains behind our internal model. Apart from modeling he found time to invent, create and adjust our card game.
Laetitia delegated the lab work, planned frequent meetings, wrote new protocols and filled in our safety form. Additionally she provided general texts for the wiki.
Convincing people and companies to invest in our project became Laura's personal challenge, this included making the sponsor brochure and folder. Beside you can also find her in the lab.
Laurens started as our personal Photoshop hero who somehow still found time to 'GO TO THE LAB'. So he became our part-time Photoshop hero and part-time lab buddy.
With her background in web design, Leen was the ideal member to create our wiki. The whole summer she spend time on creating new pages, fixing mistakes and expanding our wiki.
Moritz was the first of our model team to finish his colonial model. He discovered the wiki when he put his findings on-line. This allowed him to write most of our human practices pages.
Ovia had the difficult task to ensure communication within the team. When she isn't working in the lab she provides us with beautiful images for the stickers and our wiki.
Thomas is our hybrid model specialist. He was the connection between lab and modeling so all the necessary information was passed trough.
In the beginning Vincent was the designated bookworm who browsed trough literature at full speed. When enough information was gathered he used this knowledge in the lab.
