Mentors and Advisors

We would like to extend our gratitude to our mentors, Katarzyna Malczewska (Kasia- as we fondly call her) and Prof. Johan Robben. From the very base of having a place to work to solving complex issues, Prof. Johan has always been there with us sharing his scientific expertise or directing us to the right person who can help us find the solutions. We could have never imagined someone who can be better than Kasia to be our supervisor. Be it a scientific question or a silly doubt, advice or administration, hot cup of coffee or handy tips, to the sea or to the store or a funny story, she is always ready for all our endeavours. We would fail in our duty if we forget to mention our advisors who have helped during various stages of our project, with special mentions to Oscar Torres, for helping with the gene knock outs, Veerle De Wever, for sharing all her past experiences and all the ex-iGEM’mers, for attending our pizza meetings and giving their valuable opinions.
