The Team
Hello from Bonnie Scotland! We are the Glasgow University iGEM team: a group of ragtag superheroes from both the School of Life Sciences and the School of Engineering. Our official iGEM profile can be found here (opens in a new window).
Students
The main body of the team is composed of 10 undergraduate (4th year) students, mainly studying genetics, but with a plant scientist and two biomedical engineers as well.
Mouse over to learn our origins!
The wet lab:
- Lydia Alldred (Genetics)
- Martin Campbell (Genetics)
- Jake Casson (Molecular and Cellular Biology with Plant Science).
- Amy Ferguson (Genetics)
- Beth Greig (Genetics)
- Gemma McLelland (Genetics)
- Jacob Roberts (Genetics)
- Gintarė Sendžikaitė (Genetics)
The dry lab
- Aimee Bias (Biomedical Engineering)
- Robbie Evans (Biomedical Engineering)
Supervisors
Dr Sean Colloms
While not walking in the Scottish Highlands and shoulder crunching at
prehistoric stone circles, Sean likes to tie knots in DNA and dream up
new applications for DNA transposition and site-specific recombination.
Professor Marshal Stark
Dr Julien Reboud
Julien's current research interests have a focus on integrating biology and engineering for the benefits of healthcare and industry. Two of his focuses are Acoustofluidics (for sample manipulation), and of course, synthetic biology.
Zhao Jia
I’m now a PhD student at the University of Glasgow. My research interest is constructing novel genetic circuits to enable cells to perform useful functions. I was attracted by the idea of synthetic biology when my first time taking part in the iGEM competition as a member of 2010 Tianjin University team. It’s so lucky for me to get deep understanding of this research area during my PhD study and become an advisor of the 2014 Glasgow team.
Emma Smith
In between attending young researchers socials to indulge on free wine and crisps, Emma can be found working towards her PhD at the University of Glasgow. In the future, she hopes to be in a dark corner of the lab editing genomes.
