-
    <p>We are using Synthetic Biology to combat <b>AZO-DYE</b> Pollution.  Azo Dyes are the most common synthetic dye and are used everywhere, from food colouring to clothes. You're probably wearing clothes dyed with Azo-Dyes! But, when they get into waste water they're very toxic. Our team is engineering bacteria that degrade these dyes, using enzymes, to make them colourless and less harmful to the environment</p>

I joined iGEM because I find genetic engineering extremely interesting and with a huge range of potential applications, especially with a synthetic biology approach. It is also a great opportunity for me to gain experience in the different elements that have to be brought forward in order to successfully carry out a project. As I have only just completed my first year, my roles within the team will be to support those who are more experienced in their duties, trying to learn as much as possible on the way. In the future, I would like to take further studies like an MSc or PhD, probably related to synthetic biology or genetic engineering. Outside science, my main interests are music, being able to play several instruments, and nature.">

The areas of Public Engagement and Web Design also appeal to me. Within iGEM, I hope to develop strong interpersonal skills and to gain knowledge on effective team management.

                                data-description="<b>BSc Biotechnology (1st Year)</b><br/>As a first year biotechnology student, I wanted to jump into iGEM as soon as I got into university. In my last two years of high school, I grew fascinated by synthetic biology as a powerful tool to work on the inner code of living organisms. I became involved in the DIYbio community, where I found sources of knowledge otherwise inaccessible to me, which sparked my interest even more. I thus like to call myself a biohacker, although I have only been able to kill some bioluminescent algae so far. My role within the team will be the official jester, master of 3D printing, and best Italian scientist. I hope that by taking part in iGEM I will finally be able to do myself what I have been reading and reading about, building on what has been done so far, and learning the key skills to help found new teams in the future. When I am not in the lab you will probably find me on a fencing piste, jumping and smiling, or in the UCL Makespace, jumping and smiling.">

Therefore, here I am in the UCL iGEM 2014 team, ready for any tough challenges. I have recently finished my second year in Biochemical Engineering. With a moderate amount of lab experience and my own fascination, I am looking forward to helping out in the lab, as well as with public engagement. Dancing and doodling has always had a part in my life and I rather enjoy performing on a stage after my first stage experience at 6. Beside all these, I still believe a game of DOTA never hurts!">

In the future, I hope to complete a further Masters or Doctorate in bioinformatics or biomedical engineering and go on to work in the venture capital industry. Aside from my degree, my academic passions also stretch to computer science, literature, and economics. All of which I have had the opportunity to study at a higher level. Combined with my love of sports, video games, science fiction and fantasy, I hope to bring all of my passion and energy to our iGEM team so that we have the best project possible.">

I have always been excited by synbio’s ambitious goals and I am entertaining the idea of a career in this field, following the completion of my PhD.

My research involves developing a microscale down perfusion reactor for adherent cell culture. I’m interested in synthetic biology basically because I think being able to modify an organism to produce something is rather awesome!! I have a fondness for translatable and impactful science, and so one day I hope to have my own company producing therapeutics at pilot scale for clinical trials. Outside of science, I am a MASSIVE animal fan! I have kept and bred big pythons and boa constrictors, kept marine fish, held a baby crocodile, been bit by a skunk and have been rattle snake searching in California.">

                                data-description="<b>BSc (3rd Year, completed Jun '14)</b><br/>I have recently completed my third year as a BSc Biotechnology undergraduate at UCL. My degree has been a fusion of biochemistry and biochemical engineering modules and I have therefore learned about how the lab science translates on industrial scales. I have always appreciated the applications of biotechnology and synthetic biology is definitely one of the most fascinating and versatile fields; this is why I got involved with iGEM. I enjoy the creative aspects of life including dance, art and drama, and especially love when they can be applied to science. My passion for biology is matched only by my passion for playing football. I am also the adventurous sort and enjoy new experiences such as that of being on the iGEM team!">

My previous studies led to an undergraduate degree in Political and Social Sciences and a Masters degree in Comparative and International Politics, both at the University of Leuven, Belgium. With UCL iGEM 2014, I will mainly focus on aspects of human practice by making use of conceptual frameworks from the social sciences that examine synthetic biology and UCL iGEM’s project in a comprehensive manner. At the same time, the team will be a central element of my dissertation. In the future, I hope to work on science, innovation and/or sustainable development policies within an international context. Other interests of mine are hiking, cooking, travel, tennis, and learning languages.">

Synthetic biology excites me with its endless potential to change the world! I am hoping to apply the skills I have gained to the modelling side of the UCL iGEM 2014 team while also learning all about engaging the public and the industry. When I’m not doing science, I am either travelling, running around the nearest park, looking for opportunities to spend time by the sea, or just being cute on my own.">

My interdisciplinary approach has followed on from a degree in mathematics and time spent working in the pharmaceutical industry. Synthetic biology excites me most as a method of exploring new possibilities and contrasting these with processes that have evolved naturally – I hope to develop these ideas in a future academic career. To the 2014 UCL iGEM team I will be bringing my existing skills in mathematical modelling, as well as those I have developed in public engagement – communicating with the public about my research, through "science busking", art workshops, and comedy routines!">

I have been in UCL’s iGEM team in previous years and have enjoyed the experience, I therefore decided to participate in the iGEM project this year, to apply and enhance my knowledge in molecular and synthetic biology.">

I have a lot of faith in this year's project as a pragmatic response to a very real environmental problem. After next year, I am moving on to an MSc in Synthetic Biology or a PhD in Neuroscience, as I am most interested in trying to see how one might blend these two disparate worlds.">

My degree stood on a hairline between medical and social science. I joined last year's team in order to further my interest in neuroscience; but in the event, iGEM gave me the opportunity to exercise my more creative and practical skills, and revealed to me an entirely new approach toward understanding the mechanics of life, and the opening of a new area in scientific practice. It goes without saying that I was very keen to assist in this team's efforts.">
