Revision as of 10:30, 15 August 2011
Students
Lamya Kamal
School of MedicineGoing into first year Medicine.
Max Nicosia
School of Computer SciencePart of the modelling team. I enjoy making cynical remarks and using sarcasm, even at the cost of public disapproval ;). I am the wiki slave and my favourite saying is: "I'll be honest with you
Sam Lipworth
School of MedicineSam is going into his third year of pre-clinical medicine and is the teams resident student who knows a little but not a lot about most things. He helped out on the wiki at the very beggining, deos some lab work and is also doing work on two of the human practives projects. Sam has previous research experience with the Asthma and Allergy Research Group in Dundee where his research interest is the use/effect of Beta-Blockers in COPD patients and with whom he has published two peer-reviewed research papers. In his spare time (well, actually most of the time..) Sam is involved with all manner of musical activity.
Ogaga Sim-Ifere
School of Medicine2nd year medicine student.
Charlie Thompson
School of BiologyKeen biologist that enjoys spending long afternoons in the lab.
Christina Samson
School of MathematicsLovely girl that enjoys playing with numbers, working hard and going out for drinks with friends. (Runner up to world lasher ladette). Avid fb stalker and taking candid pictures of team members.
Supervisors
Dr. V Anne Smith
School of BiologyAnne's research is in the field of computational biology. She examines complex biological networks, developing and evaluating algorithms to infer functional interactions based upon observational data. She works many levels of biological organisation, concentrating on networks in molecular, neuronal, and ecological systems. Her current research concentrates on the use of Bayesian networks to infer interactions in these biological systems.
Dr. Chris Hooley
School of Physics & Astronomydescription goes heredescription goes heredescription goes heredescription goes heredescription goes heredescription goes heredescription goes heredescription goes heredescription goes heredescription goes heredescription goes heredescription goes here
Dr. John Mitchell
School of Biomolecular SciencesJohn is interested in anything computational and related to molecules. After a PhD in theoretical chemistry, his first postdoc was in Biochemistry at UCL. He has been a lecturer at Birkbeck and at Cambridge, before coming to St Andrews in 2009. Since then, he has done lots of chemoinformatics, quite a lot of bioinformatics and only a little real theoretical chemistry. His scientific interests include computing the binding affinities between proteins and ligands, side-effects and toxicities of pharmaceuticals, and how much of a compound will dissolve in water. His group have worked extensively on the prediction of molecular properties such as melting point and solubility from chemical structure. They also use computational methods to study enzyme reaction mechanisms. They continue to develop the MACiE database of enzyme reaction mechanisms in collaboration with Prof. Janet Thornton at the EMBL-EBI.
Dr. Morven Shearer
School of MedicineMorven is particularly interested in the Human Practices aspect of the iGEM project. She has a background in pharmacology and neuroscience and is currently an Academic Fellow in Public Health Policy in the School of Medicine where she oversees the teaching programme in medical ethics. Her research involves the ethical issues raised by advances in medicine and technology particularly in the areas of healthcare for children, reproduction/fertility, and pharmaceuticals.
