                  <p>My name is Anke Boschman and I have taken on the role of lab captain, meaning I’m responsible for all the exiting experiments we perform in the wet lab.  Together with Glenn, the modelling captain, I keep an overview of all the tasks and information and schedule and organize the team meetings. At the moment, I’m a third year student at the Eindhoven University of Technology. I’m enrolled in the bachelor Biomedical Engineering. I joined this year’s iGEM team because I like to challenge myself and I believed iGEM would be a really nice challenge since it combines the field of synthetic biology with model based engineering. I also liked the fact that you would be able to conduct your own research during a team project. Moreover, I’m curious whether full time lab work would suit me and iGEM seemed like the opportunity to get in touch with this kind of work. I hope that after bringing this iGEM project successfully to an end, I have acquired some nice skills that I’m able to apply often in my future activities. In the future, I hope I will be enjoying executing scientific research – although I do not yet know whether this will be in the field of synthetic biology.</p>

We would like to thank each sponsor personally for their contribution. Below, you can find the company logos of every company that contributed to the project whether it was with materials or with a donation. Especially, we would like to thank the Institute for Complex Molecular Systems (ICMS) for being our main sponsor.

                  <p>My name is Bas Bögels and I’m the team’s jack of all trades, doing lab work but also assisting the modelling team, and doing the external communications. I’m currently in the third year of the bachelor Biomedical Engineering at the Eindhoven University of Technology. I joined the iGEM team, because I wanted to work on a large project which wasn’t already done at our university (or elsewhere) and learn to do scientific research and plan your own project. Also I’m using iGEM to determine if the field of synthetic engineering is something I would like to specialize in. After iGEM I hope to have learned how to do my own research and hopefully decided if this field is something I would like to study further.</p>

                  <p>Currently I’m a third year student studying Biomedical Engineering at the Eindhoven University of Technology. I joined the iGEM team to do research in the field of synthetic biology because this is one of my areas of interest. Also I think it is a good way to experience how to build a research from the ground up and to apply everything you learned during the courses to the real world. After iGEM I will continue studying in the field of biomedical chemistry and biomaterials, focusing on designing new materials used for tissue engineering and pharmaceuticals.

                  <p>My name is Bram Somers and I’m helping with the sponsoring, the wiki page and the lab work. Like most of us, I study Biomedical Engineering at the Eindhoven University of Technology and I’m currently in my third year. My main reason for joining the team is because it seemed like a lot of fun. I wanted to gain more knowledge and skills on conducting research and iGEM could provide me with that. After iGEM I will most probably start working on my Bachelor End Project in the field of Protein Engineering.

                  <p>My name is Glenn Cremers and I’m the captain of the modelling team. I’m responsible for all the modeling that needs to be done in the project. I’m currently studying in the third year of the bachelor Biomedical Engineering at the Eindhoven University of Technology. I joined the iGEM team, because I wanted to work on a challenging project which hasn’t been done before allowing us to create our own project and the experiments we are going to do.  Also I’m using iGEM to determine if the modelling part combined with the field of synthetic engineering is something I would like to specialize in. After iGEM I hope to have learned how to do my own research and experiments, and hopefully I’ll be able to decide if this field is something I would like to continue with.</p>
