Students
The Michigan iGEM Software Team was founded this year. It is comprised of several students from varying academic backgrounds at the University of Michigan including bioinformatics, aerospace engineering, biomedical engineering, statistics, and microbiology. Here's a little description of each of us.
Josh Abramson
Josh Abramson
I'm one of the team's co-founders and this year's president. Hailing from West Bloomfield, I've made a living studying Biology, Mathematics, and Chemical Physics at the University of Michigan. As a veteran of the Michigan lab team and after plaguing them for 4 years, I now plague them as an adviser when I'm not leading the software team. Outside of iGEM, I enjoy tree climbing, playing pranks on my professors, and computer games. My favorite pie is blueberry.

Hi, I'm Kaitlin and I'm a 5th year PhD candidate in Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Michigan Medical School. I'm currently actively job searching (hi recruiters!) for positions in synthetic biology, data science and analytics. In my free time I like running, traveling and drinking great beer. Pumpkin pie for life.

As the only person on the planet allergic to chicken, I was an obvious choice for project manager. My perpetual absence from meetings (due to vomiting from egg contact) and cryptic directions inspired everyone to truly learn how to learn. As such, I humbly accept credit for all the team's success. I can only hope current and future members continue to be inspired by my example. My favorite pie is pot.

Hello, my name is Kelly. I am a sophomore studying aerospace engineering with a potential minor in computer science. I have a love for all things code, from controls engineering to webpage design. My dream is to one day work in the space industry, designing the probes or rockets that will get humans "from A to B".

What up, I'm Jessica. I'm a senior, preparing to be a supersenior in biomedical engineering. I play saxophone. I am also part of the iGEM lab team. I do yoga every morning. My life oscillates between phases of being saturated with coffee and deciding I need to quit. I have a collection of dead insects, and a cat- a live one. I live in a barn. And I'm a ginger.

I'm best known for my love of baking bread and singing annoyingly as possible. When not staring listlessly into the distance, I spend my time studying chemical engineering and/or optimizing a model for the concentration of tea. I joined iGEM this year to put my HTML skills to use and have my ideas of using PHPMyAdmin shut down.

Hey there, I'm Christine. I'm currently an undecided second-year at Michigan, but I have many interests, including art, music, film, dogs, and food(so basically nothing that's a viable career path!). I've been trying to learn some coding and design, so joining the iGEM team was a great way to start developing both those skills. Outside of this, other life goals include raising a golden retriever and pomsky, publishing a novel, and traveling around France (I refuse to let 4 years of French go to waste).

Hi, I'm Kristine. I'm a junior in informatics, which is basically statistics plus computer science. I enjoy baking. My current favorite recipe is glazed lemon cake. You would usually find me in the Children's Literature section in libraries, because I really love picture books.

Marc Ammerlaan
In charge of labs and graduate student instructors for the department's introductory courses. Along with the introductory biology office staff, Ammerlaan handles course administration (grades, regrades, and make-ups). He is not currently running a research program.
James Cavalcoli
Dr. Cavalcoli is an enthusiastic teacher and was a certified high school Biology and Chemistry teacher (Ames, IA), back in the late 1980’s before returning to graduate school for his Ph.D. Since 2002, he has been an adjunct assistant professor of medicinal chemistry, in the UM School of Pharmacy.
