Meet the Team

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

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

From absolutely not wanting to do science about 3.5 years ago, here I am in my 3rd year majoring in molecular biology. As part of the team, I have been organising lab work and helping to develop the wiki.In my spare ‐ or rather, non‐iGEM time ‐ I enjoy reading up on random topics, watching TV shows and listening to podcasts

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.
