Stanford–Brown–Spelman iGEM 2014

Eli Block

Eli Block is a third year Brown + RISD Dual Degree student majoring in Industrial Design at RISD and concentrating in Biology at Brown; he's particularly interested in designed ecologies, evolutionary biology, and wearable technology. Eli worked on the wasp protein waterproofing project, built concept UAVs, cooked experimental biomaterials, and developed the team wiki. Eli loves dinosaurs, artificial intelligence, print design, and swimming like a merman in the Brown University pool.

Jovita Byemerwa

I am from Tanzania, and I am currently in my third year at Brown University concentrating in Computational Molecular Biology. This summer, I worked on the biodegradability project and the Human Practices of UAVs. My huge interest is in languages: I love learning them, speaking them and even teaching them. I speak Kiswahili (which is my mother tongue), English (of course), Italian and a bit of Spanish.

Ross Dispenza

I'm a junior at Brown University concentrating in Chemistry and French Studies. I worked on the cellulose acetate and cross-linker projects. In high school, I once won a quiz bowl tournament with my team for answering a question about Lady Gaga.

Benjamin Doughty

Ben is a sophomore at Brown University intending to concentrate in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. Over the summer he worked on the Cellulose Acetate and Amberless Hell Cell projects. In high school he took home third place at a curling tournament, and he can sing the alphabet backwards.

KaNesha Gillyard

Insert a description of person here. Include university affiliation, which projects you worked on, and some interesting tidbit.

Poorwa Godbole

Insert a description of person here. Include university affiliation, which projects you worked on, and some interesting tidbit.

Jeannette Gonzales-Wright

Insert a description of person here. Include university affiliation, which projects you worked on, and some interesting tidbit.

Ian Hull

Ian somehow made it through his freshman year at Stanford without sustaining any serious chemical burns. Apparently that makes him a sophomore now, and he's interested in bioengineering, chemistry, and science communication. This summer, he worked on the wasp protein and wax ester waterproofing projects. He loves the ocean and once swam with whale sharks.

Jotthe Kannappan

Hello! I am a small and energetic junior in bioengineering at Stanford University. This summer, I worked with wasp proteins in material waterproofing and biomaterials on the production of cellulose acetate. When I'm not pipetting, I can be found humming obnoxiously, dancing, or curled up with a good book.

Alexander Levine

I am a junior at Brown University concentrating in Mathematical Physics. This summer, I worked mostly on getting ''Gluconacetobacter hansenii'' to produce cellulose acetate, and on creating software tools for synthetic biology.

Raman Nelakanti

Hello! I am the captain of the SBS iGEM team. I recently graduated from Stanford with a major in Bioengineering and worked on the Amberless Hell Cell project this summer. Outside of science, my interests include singing, hiking, exploring, and living life. And one random fact about me - I once serenaded Justice Sandra Day O'Connor!

Lydia Ruffner

Insert a description of person here. Include university affiliation, which projects you worked on, and some interesting tidbit.

Alaina Shumate

Insert a description of person here. Include university affiliation, which projects you worked on, and some interesting tidbit.

Aryo Sorayya

Aryo is a sophomore at Stanford University, where he is studying Biochemistry and Computer Science. At Ames, Aryo worked on the Wasp Protein and Biodegradability projects, helped develop the team wiki, and strove to keep lab morale high! Aryo is a cheerful polyglot and enjoys learning about other cultures, playing pranks on his teammates, and traveling the world.

Kyla Ugwu

Insert a description of person here. Include university affiliation, which projects you worked on, and some interesting tidbit.

Dr. Lynn Rothschild

Lynn is the lead scientist in synthetic biology at NASA Ames Research Center where her lab has been working on cool projects ranging from the search for life in the universe and extremophiles, to pioneering how synthetic biology can be used to address NASA's missions. She is also an adjunct professor at Brown University, inter alia, Brown Home Page. Her lab looks forward to hosting the team every year as they pioneer ways to take synthetic biology literally "out of this world". PS Yes, she really does play the bagpipes!

Dr. Kosuke Fujishima

Hi everyone! I'm Kosuke and I work as a researcher in Lynn Rothschild's lab tackling Origins of life question using Synthetic Biology. I got my Ph.D in Systems Biology from Keio University (Japan) and is currently involved in multiple themes related to Astrobiology. I have been a technical advisor of the iGEM team since 2011.
