Ashlee Smith - Supersenior, Chemical Engineering. Project lead, Engineering a Biodetoxification Pathway

Clay Swackhamer - Senior, Biological Engineering. Project lead for ...

Emily Sileo - Junior, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology

Sam Krug - Junior, Chemical Engineering

You can write a background of your team here. Give us a background of your team, the members, etc. Or tell us more about something of your choosing.

You can look at what other teams did to get some inspiration! Here are a few examples:

We provide a server where you can upload images for your wiki!

Add pictures of your team members, advisors, instructors, lab, institution and everything you wish to show!

Ashlee Smith- Project Lead, Supersenior in Chemical Engineering Completing Honors Thesis in Chemical Engineering	Clay Swackhamer- Project Lead, Senior in Biological Engineering Completing Honors Thesis in Biological Engineering
Ashlee is a supersenior chemical engineer in the Schreyer Honors College. She loves to run, hike, bike, backpack, rock climb, ski, and play any outdoor sport. When she isn't in lab, she is most often found adventuring in the woods around Penn State or at Centre County PAWS animal shelter where she leads volunteer shifts and trains dogs. Her plans after graduation in the fall of 2014 are to either pursue a career in the pharmaceutical industry or go to graduate school with a focus on synthetic biology or environmental engineering. She hopes to move out to California or Colorado.	short bio of clay
