About Us

The 2011 TU Delft iGEM team is made up of five students that will work throughout the summer in the Enzymology Lab of the Kluyver Laboratory at the Technical University of Delft. With three years of experience in iGEM and after last years' gold medal and awards the TU Delft team is highly motivated to deliver an even better project.

Our Goal

Our goal is to deliver a finished and coherent project at the European-African Jamboree in Amsterdam. Along the way we will learn, teach, discuss, have fun and make friends. This is what we will all take home as individuals. As a team we will try to take home an invitation for the MIT Jamboree!

Therefore I dedicate my time and effort to find out. After having expanded and improved my skills in management and sales, I have set my path toward science.<br/>In my master Cell Factory I focus on how we could harness or cooperate with nature's ingenuity for the use in industry. Outside of my study I enjoy reading, running and making trips with my motorcycle.<br/></p>

Besides the natural sciences, I am interested in how we can best communicate scientific discoveries and applications to society. I developed skills in this direction by doing my electives in science communication and science journalism. <br/>At this moment I am finishing my bachelor and figuring out what I want to do after that. I see taking part in the iGEM competition as a great opportunity to discover the field of synthetic biology, besides having a lot of experiences and fun with the team. <br/></p>

As soon as I learned about the iGEM competition, I was immediately enthusiastic and made my molecular laboratory available for the summer period.&nbsp;Now iGEM is a recurring event at our department. Together with two colleagues, Aljoscha and Alessandro, I will supervise this year's iGEM team.&nbsp;Hopefully, this year's multidisciplinary team will perform well and will make it trough to the&nbsp;World Championship Jamboree in&nbsp;Boston.&nbsp;<br/></p>
