Profesores
Fernando Govantes Romero (Microbiología)
Over the years evolved to be called Fernan and then Fer... I may end up losing my name altogether. I am the grandfather of the team and I run the Foundational Advances subteam. Best known for my secular knowledge on bacterial strain genotypes, transposons and other genetic gimmicks, as well ancient protocols and media recipes.
Luis Merino Cabañas (Ing. De Sistemas y Automática)
What's doing a roboticist with a bunch of biotechnologists? Surprisingly (actually, not so) the same as before: engineering. I'm co-advising the dry-lab with my colleague Manuel (master of MATLAB and huge models). After a fast immersion last year into the (very) basics of genetic engineering, I'm still enjoying learning a lot of new things and the possibilities we have to manipulate or create new biological robots. And I met some of the creators of ARPANET in the way!!!
Manuel Béjar Domínguez (Ing. De Sistemas y Automática)
Antonio Jesús Pérez Pulido (Bioinformática)
I am the motorized man in the group, and I don't walk but I am going on my wheels. The sequence and structure analyses are my expertise, using and developing bioinformatics tools.
Antonio Prado Moreno (Fisiología Animal)
Víctor Álvarez Tallada (Genética)
This is Victor, I am one of the new supervisors recruited (on my way to the toilet !!) for this year iGem adventure. Genetics is what I enjoy the most. I give advice to Felix and Yolanda; together we are what they call "V subteam".
Rafael Rodríguez Daga (Genética)
Estudiantes
Adrián Arellano Davín (Biotecnología)
If you look for somebody who really loves science and learning, it is Adrián. He will read every book he can get his hands on. He is a physicist enthusiast and a renowned go player. Adrián was the first in discovering iGEM and we have to thank him for passing on us his passion for learning beyond the degree. This year he jumped to the DryLab and he is doing great visual and parametric simulations.
David Caballero Pradas (Biotecnología)
Paola Gallardo Palomo (Biotecnología)
Yolanda Elisabet Gonzalez Flores (Biotecnología)
I am Yolanda, also called Yoly or even Yolibeth by my friends. I am the errant iGEMer, as this year I'll spend half of the summer working in Santander. I am a bio-geek and a T4 phage lover, and I have joint the team this year. I'm working with Felix on the optimization of the bistable by proteolysis and asRNA.
José Gutiérrez Tabuenca (Ing. Técnica Informática)
Jesús Jiménez Sobrado (Ing. Industrial)
Amalia Martinez Segura (Biotecnología)
Aída Moreno Moral (Biotecnología)
After years of carrying my huge friend (the double bass), I moved from music to Biological Sciences, which as not many may know, aren't completely different fields as they can look! As a bassist I learned that complex systems always start from good bases. I am one of the new acquisitions of the UPO-iGEM team. So what do I do? I juggle between the dry and wet labs, performing bioinformatics analyses while also trying to assist in the dry lab's biological issues.
Luis Eduardo Pavón (Ing. Técnica Informática)
Félix Reyes Martín (Biotecnología)
Probably, i'm the laziest member of the team, at least that's what my friends usually say. However, when it comes to working in the lab, i always intent to give the best of myself. This is my second year in UPO sevilla team and although last year I worked really hard on it, I'm feeling even more eager this year. I belong to the V's subteam (a little group inside wet lab workers) and we will try to set up some improvements in the classic toggle switch.
