UiOslo IGEM 2014

UiOslo Norway

We are the norwegian team from the University of Oslo.

The team members

Håkon Høgset

Half human and half machine, Håkon obviously has difficulties expressing his sense of humor. He is designed to handle advanced concepts of philosophy, mathematics and molecular biology, but not to remember where his keys are. Håkon is studying for a masters degree in molecular biology at the University of Oslo. He has grown up at Lambertseter in Oslo, but despite of that he’s really doing ok. When he heard about IGEM he thought immediately that this was up his alley. Therefore he started recruiting people to the team in the student cafeteria.

Fun fact: Has curls, and is actually a real human.

Promise: If we win the grand prize, I'm buying a big, fat gold ring that I'm gonna wear for the rest of my life.

William Brynildsen

I am a 25 year old master student in molecular biology and more particularly I am using bioinformatics on next-generation data to investigate the evolution of transposons in cod (not the video game). I am also intrigued by the field of synthetic biology and the possibilities that lies within. My contribution to the project has been lab work and also some human practises. Beside all this school stuff I enjoy board games and playing the piano and the guitar and spending time with family and friends.

Fun fact: My dad was born in Africa.

Promise: If we win I will swim over the atlantic sea back home.

Vilde Olsson

I am 24 years old and currently taking my masters in plant genetics. I am passionate by everything in the field of molecular biology, and I love the experience and fun the iGEM competition brings with it. Outside the world of science I love downhill skiing, surfing and a good, cold beer (preferably accompanied by some good friends and snacks). My contribution in the competition has most usefully been in the lab work, but I also try to do a part of the other, more complicated parts as human practices and wiki making.

Fun fact: Likes Sex and the City.

Promise: If we win I will spend a day hugging random people at the street - pretending to know them.

Sumaya Yusuf

I’m in my final year of the five year program in Pharmacy. I love learning about different subjects and pharmacy was the perfect of natural sciences mix for me. I like staying busy and having a lot to do. In the little spare time I have, I like to read even though I don’t always manage to finish reading a book I start on.

Fun fact: I’ve done cosplaying before.

Promise: If we win I will scream something iGEM related from the top of my lungs,as loud as I possibly can from the highest point in Oslo. I.E. "UiOSLO iGEM fricking rulez!" ...I’ll most likely have found a better sentence to scream by the time we’re in Boston.

Izadora Lorrany

I am 23 years old, brazilian and finishing my bachelor in biochemistry. I love science and have worked with Human Parasitology for 3 years. My dream is to become a researcher and contribute to society with my discoveries. I am passionate for my family (too emotive by the way), singing and brazilian food. In my free time I like to read, be with my friends and watch series.

Fun fact: I used to practice gymnastics (yes, with somersaults! =D)

Promise: If we win I will give a short demonstration of my gymnastic skills in Giant Jamboree.

Stian Lågstad

I’m studying informatics for technical and scientific applications. That fits me well, as I’ve alwayd been a huge computer geek. I’m interested in bioinformatics, so I’m planning to write my masters assigment with the biomedical informatics group at my university. When I’m not hammering away on my keyboard I can be found camping, playing football (read: soccer) or hanging out at my faculty’s student society: Realistforeningen.

Fun fact: He's obsessed about the number 42. You should know why.

Promise: If we win, I'm getting a synthetic biology tattoo.

Elina Melteig

I’m an extrovert, math-loving, partly nerdy person who believes that science makes the world a better place! I study bionanotechnology and in a years time I will finish my masters. When I don’t work on the iGEM-project I look for algae for my masters project. I love traveling and I’ve visited a lot of places. In addition I’ve taken a bachelor in Arabic, and I love learning other languages.

Fun fact: I learned to swim before I could walk.

Promise: If we win the big prize I will face my fear and watch “The Black Sheep” alone. In the dark.

Dirk Linke

My research group focusses on the structure and function of the bacterial cell surface.

Our work is typically comparative – we do not work on a single pathogenic “pet” organism, but instead compare related surface proteins from different species, studying their similarities and subtle differences. Our work is also interdisciplinary – we use methods from bioinformatics, structural biology and biophysics on top of classical methods from microbiology, molecular biology and biochemistry.

More about Linke.
