Who we are

Students

• Beatriz Salesa Landete (Undergraduate student, Marine Sciences, UCV)

• Miguel Pitarch Mocholí SWISS ARMY KNIFE ENGINEER(Undergraduate student, Mechanical Engineering, UPV)

Hi everybody!!! I’m Miguel, I was in the 2009 Valencia iGEM Team. The experience was so good that I’m really happy to repeat it again. Currently I’m studying a master degree in Mechanical Engineering. I like iGEM because to bring out a project with limited resources you have to let your creativity flows and work as a handyman. If you want know more about me don’t be shy and ask me in the European meeting or maybe in the MIT.

• Juan Ricardo Ortiz Meneses (Undergraduate student, Biotechnology, UCV)

Hello world scientists.

My name is Juan Ricardo and I am studing Biotechnology at the Catholic University of Valencia, UCV (Valencia Spain).

I think it's important to create useful applications using knowledge from different scientific fields. I love to read scientific articles, roller-skating to release adrenaline, playing guitar, singing, listening rock music and travel doing gastronomic and cultural tourism.

I hope the project we decided to develop this year to disinfect contaminated water will improve the quality of life of living beings that inhabit this world.

• Maria Mossi Vila (Undergraduate student, Marine Sciences, UCV)

Hello, my name is Maria and I am a student of marine science in UCV from Valencia (Spain). I wanted to participate in the IGEM because I had much attention and great enthusiasm to create new tools that can help us in future to improve our circumstances. I also seemed very interesting to work with students from other scientific branches.

• David Fuente Herraiz MAHARAJAH ENGINEER OF MEMBRANES (Graduate student, Chemical Engineering, UPV)

• Lluís Gimeno Giménez HAND-ROLLING MICROALGAE ADDICT (Undergraduate student, Marine Sciences, UCV)

• David Hervas Marin (Graduate student, Biology, UV)

Hello, I'm a biologist specialized in genetics. Currently I'm studying a master degree in Biostatistics. I like developing new ideas and thinking of original ways to solve problems, so when my friend David Fuente told me about iGEM it was a no-brainer to join the team. See you in Amsterdam!

• Marina Sanz Martín ETHICAL WATCHWOMEN (Undergraduate student, Marine Sciences, UCV)

• Helena Sáez Pérez (Undergraduate student, Biology, UV)

Hi colleges!! I am a biologist, specializing mainly in the field of molecular biology. I knew the project was to take place this year, which is very interesting, I think, so I'm really pleased to participate. I hope to take advantage of this experience, both technical and personal. Bachelor’s in Biology, University of Valencia
