-
<b>What would you attempt if you knew you could not fail?</b><br>
+
-
The knowledge that failure is possible is a stimulation to work harder, furthermore the search for
+
-
solutions to problems encountered is the most informative and interesting part of any experience.<br>

<b>If you could give the world one piece of advice, what would it be?</b><br>

Don’t worry, be happy!!!<br>

<b>Studies:</b> 1st Master of Biochemistry and Biotechnology<br>
+
-
<b>What would you attempt if you knew you would not fail?</b><br>
+
-
I would found a biochemical company that, next to being a world leader in biochemical research,
+
-
tries to change the (rather) negative image that biochemistry and synthetic biology have. When the
+
-
public opinion has been changed, more life science research can be done, which will benefit the
+
-
society.<br>
+
-
<b>If you could give the world one piece of advice, what would it be?</b><br>
+
-
It’s not too late YET: Go green so that our planet becomes clean (again)!<br>
+
-
<b>If you could see black and white except for one color, what you choose to see?</b><br>
+
-
Green: You have a lot of green in nature and you could still use the GFP as a visualization system.<br>
+
-
<b>What are your plans for the future?</b><br>
+
-
In the near future I’m hoping to go to Boston with our iGEM team. In the next year I want to do a
+
-
lot of research for my thesis, so that it becomes a great success so that I can go for a PhD. In the far
+
-
future I have the ambitions to become a professor or a founder of a company!<br>

Creating pink ducks (asking the Belgian politicians to form a government)<br>

Bring a raincoat with you when you visit Belgium!!!!<br>

Blue, this way I’m still capable to look at the sky and see the clouds and fantasize (or pink to see if

-
my creation succeeded!).<br>

Still the same as now and in the mean time I would specialize in heroic supernatural intervention

(preventing earth quakes by sitting in top of it, blow away a tsunami by breathing in front of it…)<br>

<b>If you could see black and white except for one color, what you choose to see?</b><br>

I would create a device mimicked from an organism that could see more color than me, maybe even

more than human species. Nothing is impossible with synthetic biology!<br>

I would make a bacterium which will make it capable to see all the colors, because I cannot live in a

world without all the beautiful colors.<br>

Not much: graduating in Biochemistry and Biotechnology, PhD, professor, start my own company,

becoming president (of the world), getting married, having four children, adopting four children,

making a government for Belgium,… just go with the flow<br>

KULeuven iGEM 2011

close

K.U. Leuven Team

The 2011 team consists of (bio-) engineers and (biomedical) scientists of the KUL, and – new this year – media developers from the MAD faculty of Genk. Each team member spends his/her summer holiday working on the project. The project was housed at the Faculty of Science, which provided a space for experiments, access to computers and appropriate equipment.
