Jenhan is a PhD student in the Bioinformatics and Systems Biology program at UCSD. He's interested in utilizing computational technqiues to increase our capacity to understand complex biological problems such as cell signalling. This is Jenhan's second year working as an iGEM mentor. Previously Jenhan was involved in synthetic biology research as an iGEM team member at Boston University and as a research assistant at UC Berkeley, the BioFAB, and Boston University.

My name is Benjamin Kellman. I am a PhD student at the University of California at San Diego studying Bioinformatics and Systems Biology. My work uses existing formalisms in mathematics and computer science to consolidate the spurious information of experimental biology to a more codified rule set; many such reductions have already been made. I hope to apply fundamental biological axioms formalism to increase the power of my biological predictions.
