This is Tyler. "ANGHHHHH!?" He owns a white board pen monopoly headquartered in a small, unrecognized South American state. Although there may or may not be actual proof that it exists, Tyler derives great joy from this accomplishment. When around Tyler, one should avoid using white board pens, as Tyler will almost undoubtedly request the payment of a "whiteboard tax." Tyler also enjoys terrifying children with the help of Illustrator.
Hello! My name is Samantha and I recently graduated from UTD with a BSc in Biology. I am interested in synthetic biology because it offers very unique and dynamic solutions to complicated problems. I joined iGEM because it's an excellent platform for creative collaboration among young scientists. When I am not in the lab... it's probably because I just left to get more coffee and am on my way back to the lab.
Megan Zerez is a molecular biology sophomore (or junior, she’s not entirely sure) at UT Dallas. She enjoys getting used books in the mail, building things (especially cardboard boats, printers and insane three monitor setups) and being a food snob. She has a pet ukulele and a tendency to not attend lecture in favor of puttering around in the lab. She does not do voice modulation well and likes to talk about all of these things maybe a bit too loudly, much to the chagrin of our neighbors at NSERL. In addition to wet-lab work, Megan worked on the wiki and human practices project.
Tra is biology major but she is still deciding between Molecular Cell Biology and Mathematics. Nevertheless, she loves both. Since she is good at math, she does the biological system modelling for our project, despite having any prior programming experience. She learned gro and MatLab just for iGEM. Aside from wet lab work, she also helps with building the wiki. Tra loves languages. She is learning Japanese, Russian, http, and css. When there is dead time in the lab you will find her occasionally engaging in conversations on the topic of Math as a language with our labs post-doc. In between reactions, if she is not utilizing time by cleaning the lab bench, Tra would do calligraphy on the white board. Tra is an iGEM late-comer but she soon became an essential part of the team. The song "Tra's Brief Life as a Spider" on Spotify reveals her life prior to iGEM. Tra was briefly reincarnated as a spider, then later, as a Wild Horse on the planet of nearly, where wild horses hold the majority in the senate. She likes pudding, but only without raisins. When not doing iGEM wet lab and dry lab work, Tra enjoys swing dancing, sacrificing bishops (in chess club), setting ants on fire with isopropanol, and slashing people with sabre (in fencing club). Tra occasionally bring borscht, mooncakes, and cashew butter to the lab. Tra is at the same time engaging in a math research. She is looking to further the application of math in the study of biology.
I’m a sophomore majoring in Molecular Biology. I’m an avid Netflixer and love ice cream, napping, windy days, Chipotle, and going to airports (in that order). In lab I can most likely be found in front of the centrifuges at the Miniprep station or in front of the whiteboard admiring the lovely tables and diagrams. iGEM has been a great opportunity where I learned tons about everything ranging from the CRISPR-Cas9 system to ‘crunchy bread,’ and had a lot of fun while doing so.
Hello, my name is Kortne Banks and I am a senior majoring in biology at The University of Texas at Dallas. When I am not busy studying for exams I love to spend my free time tutoring children and writing. I am currently writing a children’s book that aims towards inspiring children to pursue their dreams. A goal of mine is to one day start a nonprofit organization that helps children excel in stem careers. What prompted me to participate in Igem was my amazement on how much power the students have over choosing a project for the jamboree competition. I initially had zero bacterial cloning experience and now I am a cloning machine. I also learned a few web design techniques using html for our team wiki page. Igem has been an amazing opportunity for me and there is no doubt that this summer has been an unforgettable experience.
