THE NINE
• '''Jazz Clucas''' – I am a second year student studying Biological Sciences at UEA. I had never heard of synthetic biology until applying to be a team member in the UEA-JIC iGEM team. After attending a student synthetic biology symposium in Glasgow I found this new scientific field mind blowing and entering the iGEM competition was the perfect opportunity to take my interest further. As well as a dedicated scientist, I love playing and competing in sport, in particular equestrian sports.
• '''Ben Jevans''' – I’m in my second year of studying Biomedicine. I wanted to join iGEM because it seemed like a great opportunity to get some hands on experience in a non-teaching lab environment and learn some valuable skills that I’ll need for a future career in science. Outside of the grindstone I enjoy reading, writing and going out. I’m the joint WIKI manager, along side Gurdeep. We work together to ensure our WIKI is working well>
• '''Gurdeep Dosanjh''' – I am currently in my second year at UEA, studying Biomedicine. I wanted to join the iGEM competition as this gives me the chance to obtain some lab experience and work with other team members on a project. This enables me to gain first-hand experience to a career as a scientist. Outside of the team, I have a keen interest in football and organize a 5-aside football tournament on a weekly basis. I am joint wiki manager with Ben and ensure that the WIKI is up to date and far superior to any other teams.
• '''Kimberley Hirst-Jones''' – As a second year student studying Biological Sciences at the University of East Anglia I was eager to join the new UEA/JIC iGEM team in order to gain some research experience as part of the exciting and ever growing iGEM competition. My role within the team as outreach co-ordinator will involve directing public engagement activities within the local community and implementing ideas relating to human practice.
