Supervisors
Dr. Michael Ellison
Department of Biochemistry
At the beginning of his career, Mike Ellison's interests were primarily centered on the structure and function of complex biomolecules. More recently his interests have tended towards the possibility of constructing synthetic biological devices that perform useful functions. As Synthetic Biology theme leader of the Bioconversions network, his current efforts are directed toward the creation of microbial systems with the capacity to produce high value chemical feedstocks from provincially available sources of biomass. He continues to be a strong advocate for innovative science. He has served on the boards of Genome Prairie, the Alberta Network for Proteomic Innovation and has played a major role in bringing new technologies to the university through two multi-million dollar investments from the Canada Foundation for Innovation.
Dr. Douglas Ridgway
Department of Biochemistry
After a background in physics, Dr. Ridgway worked in computational modeling in both industry and academia, and is currently a researcher in Biochemistry at the University of Alberta. 2011 marks his fifth year advising U of A iGEM teams.

Collaborators
Alex Siu
Alex Siu is a student of the University of Alberta School of Business. Previously, he earned a B. Sc. Honors in Pharmacology from the same school. He has aided our team in completing the Cost Analysis Report, which was incorporated into the Human Practices portion of our project.
Stephen Jahns
Steve's super rad. You should buy him a beer. He's done iGEM a couple times before, and this year he helped with a bunch of wiki stuff.
