Biography of Emily Hicks

Felix's biography

I’m in my third year of Electrical Engineering with a specialization in Biomedical Engineering. In the little spare time I have I like to read fantasy books and play rugby. In the past three years my team has won three city championships and two provincial championships. iGEM is the first summer research I am involved in. While I don’t have prior knowledge in biology, I am looking to learn more about it this summer. My job in the team is to develop software applications to support the wet-lab work and to think of possible applications of our bacteria.

I'm currently in my third year in the Bachelor of Health Sciences program (Bioinformatics stream) at the University of Calgary. This is my second year in iGEM and I am very excited to be a part of the team again. I believe that iGEM offers an amazing and rare opportunity for undergrads from multiple disciplines to come together and learn about synthetic biology first-hand. This year I'm responsible for helping out with both wetlab and drylab components, as well as other odd jobs as needed. In my spare time I enjoy karate, writing, doodling, and sleeping.

Hey, I'm Robert, and I'm in my third year of Biomedical Science at the U of C. I play a guitar in my spare time and chillax with friends whenever anyone is free. I've never done any kind of research work before so I'm excited to help out with the sensor system and have fun and create some mutants. The best part of this job is that there's a Timmies (Tim Horton's - a donut store) on the walk here, so I'm full of energy by the time I get to the lab. The summer will be awesome, working with some cool dudes and playing with science!

I am a third year student at the University of Calgary studying Biomedical Sciences. In Junior High, I memorized the entire Qur'an, and became class Valedictorian in high school. I have an avid interest in both medicine and in Islamic Law and hope to pursue both these career paths. This is my first year in iGEM and will contribute primarily to the wet lab portion of the research, specifically in identifying a suitable reporter for the naphthenic acids biosensor. I hope to gain valuable research experience from working iGEM this summer and to work towards creating a solutions to naphthenic toxicity in Alberta's oil sands.

Hi! I'm a third year student in Software Engineering with a Biomedical Specialization. In high school, I was the silver medallist at the Provincial Debate Championships, and Bronze at Europeans. In my spare time, I am an avid programmer and am working on solving mathematical puzzles at Project Euler. I also judge at debate tournaments, and participate in badminton and swing dancing. I am very excited about iGEM this semester - it promises to be a very mind-expanding activity.
