Mary Lenore Pafford, Bioinformatics Undergraduate Testing Paragraph Format Maximilian Genetti , Originally from Los Gatos, California 
Why are you at UCSC? "Since my first biology class I have always been fascinated with genetics. It was when I was applying to colleges that I learned about how UCSC was involved with the Human Genome Project and what it was continuing to do with bioinformatics and single molecule detection that that I knew it was where I needed to go." What do you like to do outside the lab? "Scuba Diving is the best hobby I ever picked up. Everything from exploring the ocean at 60 feet down, navigating kelp forests, getting followed by sea lions, and struggling out of a cold wetsuit are all part of why I do it." Christopher Lee , Originally from Riverside, California 
What interested you about iGem? "I wanted to join the iGEM after informally participating in last years project as a consultant. In addition, synthetic biology has been a rather small part of my time here at UCSC, and iGEM presented a perfect opportunity to learn more about it as a field." What do you like to do outside the lab? "My main hobbies include powerlifting and basketball, as well as discussing general health and nutrition." Kaylee Walker , Originally from Los Osos, California 
What interested you about iGem? iGEM gives a unique opportunity to become involved as an undergraduate in all areas of a research undertaking, from planning and fundraising to wet lab work; in our case, we are also striving to create a sustainably sourced biofuel, a topic of great interest and relevance. What do you like to do outside the lab? Outside of school, I enjoy art and music; specifically, I play the accordion and piano and try my hand at scientific and naturalist illustration.
