I’m Ufuk, sophomores of Bilkent University, Molecular Biology and Genetics Department. Playing squash and Dota are my favourite activities, if I win. Fantastic books are fascinates me. First book, I read was One Thousand and One Nights. In iGEM; I like its fun and working style. Everything happens together. I like to watch movies especially with friends. This is my first iGEM experience, I am thankful to my team members for sharing their fun.

I am Tarkan and one of the member of the Bilkent – UNAM – Turkey team. I love watching and playing sports especially football and basketball just as usual Turkish guys do. I love dancing but generally too shy to start doing it in public. I like talking and meeting new people. Telling jokes and amuzing people is my style of communication, because that is the best way of telling your good intentions towards others. I participate volunteering action a lot in the campus and that actions target poor, rural and disabled children. I love them and enjoy spending time with. So, that is it for me now.

It is Burcu from Bilkent University, Institute of Material Science and Nanotechnology. I am very proud of being a member of Bilkent UNAM Turkey team because I think; here we reflect the real team spirit. Here is a brief information about me: I spent every minute of me by listening music! Nothing makes me happy like talking with people. I do love sports activities if I can bring down my laziness. Reading books is not for me but reading articles has become my pleasure for a long time. As many members of my team, it is my first IGEM participation. I hope we will rock the IGEM world with our endless energy and success!

When we were newbie, we organized a lot of meeting to find out our main project than we got idea for improving human welfare so we choose an idea from brainstorm results. We searched to get a gene to work on. As a result; lab works has began.

Lazy excuse of a doctoral student who spends all his time reading any research paper except those about the topic<br> he’s ought to study. Quite knowledgeable about entomology, marine biology and world mythology, can read hieroglyphics. <br>Still a worthless researcher because he’s supposed to do microbiology work. Special skills <br>include using his rubber gloves as a sling to shoot.<br>

The picture you look represents me. And that is all. <br>
 +
By the way, I like playing computer games such as <a href="http://lmgtfy.com/?q=DotA">DotA</a>, <a href="http://lmgtfy.com/?q=TF2">TF2</a> and <a href="http://lmgtfy.com/?q=AoE2">AoE2</a> and also -while playing- <br> I love characterizing other players. In order to do so, I may sometimes change, replace or insert some DNA into computer games, <br> I mean the source code. Some calls this cheating, but I swear it is not. <br>:)

<p> IGEM Project is our number one priority. As we worked really hard for our project it is important for us to make our dreams come true which is taking a gold medal. Questioning different items like experiment time, materials and methods and the efficiency of the experiments improved our skills and we started to look as a scientist to problems we faced. There were lots of challenging parts and sometimes we thought to quit but we listened to “Eye of The Tiger” and we did not give up from our experiments we delayed them yes, but we never gave up. <p>

IGEM team- meet-up was a great opportunity for us to communicate with the other groups, understood their projects and share our ideas. As we had a chance for an interview with Anatolia Agency, we also used media power to get attention to our project, iGEM and the importance of synthetic biology. <p>

Apart from that we did not forget having fun apart from our lab. As we planned a BBQ party, it was also a great chance for us to relax and gain some energy for our experiments, I did not even mention about the delicious foods and how joyful was our activities. Also like in iGEM team meeting up, we had a chance to introduce our project and main aim to other scientists and researchers in different areas.<p>

    I’m Ebuzer, recently graduated from the Middle East Technical University and I’ am now starting my PhD in UNAM. My hobbies
    consist of football, squash, Dota, watching movies, pen spinning. My favourites are shawshank redemption for movie,
    Game of thrones for literature, Dexter for series. At last I am really interested in biodiesel production and
    algal systems. This year we have a great team, being able to work hard and getting fun are our basic rules.

    Lazy excuse of a doctoral student who spends all his time reading any research paper except those about the topic
    he’s ought to study. Quite knowledgeable about entomology, marine biology and world mythology, can read hieroglyphics.
    Still a worthless researcher because he’s supposed to do microbiology work. Special skills
    include using his rubber gloves as a sling to shoot.
    Eppendorf tubes with remarkable accuracy and reading while walking on difficult terrain (our faculty is
    on top of a hill and surrounded by a forest for some reason, there's a lot of difficult terrain here.)

    It is Burcu from Bilkent University, Institute of Material Science and Nanotechnology. I am very proud of being a
    member of Bilkent UNAM Turkey team because I think; here we reflect the real team spirit. Here is a brief
    information about me: I spent every minute of me by listening music! Nothing makes me happy like talking with
    people. I do love sports activities if I can bring down my laziness. Reading books is not for me but reading
    articles has become my pleasure for a long time. As many members of my team, it is my first IGEM participation.
    I hope we will rock the IGEM world with our endless energy and success!

    The picture you look represents me. And that is all.
    By the way, I like playing computer games such as DotA, TF2 and AoE2 and also -while playing-
    I love characterizing other players. In order to do so, I may sometimes change, replace or insert some DNA into computer games,
    I mean the source code. Some calls this cheating, but I swear it is not.

    I am Tarkan and one of the member of the Bilkent – UNAM – Turkey team. I love watching and playing sports especially
    football and basketball just as usual Turkish guys do. I love dancing but generally too shy to start
    doing it in public. I like talking and meeting new people. Telling jokes and amusing people is my style of
    communication, because that is the best way of telling your good intentions towards others. I participate
    volunteering action a lot in the campus which target poor, rural and disabled children. I love them
    and enjoy spending time with. So, that is it for me now.

I’m Ufuk, sophomore student of Bilkent University, Molecular Biology and Genetics Department. Playing squash and Dota are my favourite activities, if I win. Fantastic books fascinate me. First book i read was "One Thousand and One Nights". In IGEM; I like its fun and working style. Everything happens together. I like watching movies when it is with friends. This is my first time being in a research project team, so i am really thankful to my team members for sharing their experience and joy.
