I am currently entering my second year in Software Engineering and I felt I needed to get involved with something. Participating in iGEM for the first time this summer has been an interesting experience. I may not know too much about synthetic biology, but I did learn quite a bit about designing a website inside a MediaWiki template. Just because the members of this team are epic cool, this country geek is looking forward to working alongside them next year as well!

In the fall of 2011, I will be going into my second year of undergraduate studies of Honours Specialization in Biochemistry. This past summer has been my first year as a member of the uOttawa iGEM team, as a wet lab worker. iGEM has proven simply to be an amazing experience, by being a method of learning outside of the normal textbook or lecture-based education that we are all so familiar with. Aside from science, I spend my time making music, breakdancing, and enjoying a night out every so often...Oh, and you can catch me on Youtube at 1MaginAZN!
Matthew OrtonMatthew Orton I am currently entering my fifth year of Biopharmaceutical Science with an option in Genomics. This is my fourth summer as a member of the uOttawa iGEM Team and since I am now a Co-President, my role on the team is wide ranging, from fundraising to wet lab work to administrative duties. I think what keeps me so engaged in iGEM is its interdisciplinary nature and the opportunity to be creative and innovative in a research environment. Other interests include running, reading and gaming. I really think the uOttawa Team has something truly exceptional and awesome to contribute to the competition this year and I can’t wait for the jamboree(s)!

I've always been interested in biochemistry and engineering and systems biology allows me to apply my two interests simultaneously. iGEM is a great way for me explore systems biology with my peers.
