The Team

The undergraduate portion of the IGEM 2011 team at UC Davis is currently comprised of four UC Davis students, two of whom are carried over from the team that brought home a Gold at the iGEM Jamboree last year. Candidates for this years iGEM team were selected based on their academic achievement, previous work and laboratory experience, interviews with faculty and responses to a questionnaire about iGEM and synthetic biology.

Keegan Owsley

     Position: Team leader.
     Major: Biomedical Engineering.
     Year: Senior.
     iGEM Experience: 2 years.
     Speciality: Code-guy.
     Musical Expertise: None.
     

Autobiography: Hey guys, I'm Keegan.


Tim Fenton

     Position: Team member.
     Major: Cell Biology.
     Year: Senior.
     iGEM Experience: 3 years.
     Speciality: Wetlab, Wiki Design.
     Musical Expertise: 17 years of piano, plays about a dozen other instruments.
     

Autobiography: Hey there I'm Tim. I really enjoy doing iGEM because it is one of the best undergrad research opportunities and I love working in the field of synthetic biology. If I'm not working in lab (almost never) I enjoy cycling on the country roads around Davis and playing tennis.


Aaron Heuckroth

     Position: Team member.
     Major: Microbiology, Classics.
     Year: Senior.
     iGEM Experience: 1 year.
     Speciality: Bacteria Geek, Fundraising.
