Craig LaBoda | Boston University '11
Craig graduated from Boston University last semester with a Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering. As a 2010 Lutchen Fellow at BU, Craig studied the use of DNA microarrays for microfluidic disease diagnosis, as well as the capturing and organization of DNA origami. This fall he will enter Duke University’s Electrical Engineering PhD program where he will study DNA self-assembly in Professor Chris Dwyer’s Self-Assembled Systems Group. |

Douglas Densmore | Boston UniversityDoug is the Richard and Minda Reidy Family Career Development Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Boston University. His research focuses on the development of tools for the Specification, Design, and Assembly of Synthetic Biological Systems. These tools and methodologies borrow techniques from embedded system design and electronic design automation. He led the award winning UC Berkeley Software iGEM teams in 2008 and 2009 . He is currently remodeling his "new" 1880 Victorian home...help!!! |

Margaux Canevari | Boston University '11
Margaux recently graduated Boston University with a degree in Biomedical Engineering. In the fall, she will begin pursuing her Masters in Applied Anatomy and Physiology at Boston University and working in the Stepp lab on research involving the rehabilitation of patients with disordered sensorimotor function. Her previous research includes neural auditory and neural visual studies. She was very excited to change gears for a bit and work on a synthetic biology project and expand her horizons. |
