The iGEM 2010 Team Freiburg
We are a team
of students
consisting of 15 members. Among, there are 13 biology students
specialized in
various topics such as Biochemistry, Genetics, Microbiology, Plant
Biotechnology, Immunology and of course Synthetic Biology. Furthermore,
our
team has one student of physics and one student of informatics.
Combining these
abilities we handled the challenges associated with our project and
realized it
hand in hand. Over the past summer, the team of biology students worked
in
groups and was greatly supported by our instructors and supervisor.
Each group consisted
of 2-3 students and was specialized either on DNA cloning or on cell
culture.
These main topics were again divided into smaller ones, like for
example
‘N-terminal fusion’ or ‘loop modifications’ of our virus. As our
labjournal
editings reached unlimited dimensions, we realized that we need further
help. Luckily
our Physics and Computer sciences students reinforced our team and
designed the
wiki and created mathematical models.
Besides the
daily
laboratory work, we all spent some free time together, watching movies
cooking,
and having fun together. One of the funniest events was our canoe trip,
sunny
weather but however, wet conditions.

Team members
Instructors
Kristian Müller
Kristian is our supervisor, he coordinates and reinforces us in our efforts and plans.
Katja Arndt
Sven Hagen
To tell the truth, he is the best instructor a team can have. Stop!
Besides Tobi, of course. Thank you for everything.
Citation: Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible. (St. Francis of Assisi 1181/1182 – 1226)
Tobias Baumann
To tell the truth, he is the best instructor a team can have. Stop! Besides Sven, of course. Thank you for everything.
Student Members
Achim Mall
Achim is surrounded by an aura of silence. Pipete more than 100 qPCRs?
No problem! Keep cool and then let’s go.
Citation: I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as
they fly by. (Douglas Adams)
Adrian Fischer
This is Adrian, he is not only one of the best in cell culture, but he
brought music from all centuries (preferring the 90’s!) into our lives.
Citation: “You have to make the good out of the bad, because that is
all you have got to make it out of." Robert Penn Warren
Anissa Bender
Anissa has skills in cloning and cell culture works, both without any
difficulty. And if you need somebody to be really honest, she is the
right person.
Anna Oschowitzer
She`s the heart and soul of the lab. Always good-humored and poised to do that needs to be done. She has skills in cloning and PCR and did a good job in winning sponsors.
Bea Kaufmann
Our ‘laboratory smurf’ is an organizing talent and takes care of the whole project and its single members.
Christian Weingärtner
He is the real midiprep master, the nanodrop is overstrained when
measuring these enormous concentrations.
Citation: "All the world's a stage" William Shakespeare
Hanna Wagner
The ITRs were nearly incomprehensible, until now! Here we have somebody with the fanciest methods and cloning strategies.
Jessica Günzle
Jessica is a multitalent. Planning our iGEM cajak tour, our trip and
flight to Boston and working in the lab at the same time. That is
great, man!
Citation: Equipped with his five senses, man explores the universe
around him and calls the adventure Science. (Edwin Powell Hubble)
Kerstin Klingele
Our sweet little girl does great work in cell culture and using flow cytometry. You can be sure with every business, it is all in good hands.
Kira Meyerovich
Laboratory experience is greatly available. And a very smart way of working, too.
Max Schelker
Max is our physicist and a specialist in Systems Biology, he really
knows how to handle data-based mathematical modeling.
Citation: "Do not worry about your difficulties in Mathematics. I can
assure you
mine are still greater." (Albert Einstein)
Stefan Bergmann
If you think there is no helping hand, you’re wrong. Stefan is
everywhere and has got the plans in mind.
Citation: "We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet
of a very average star. But we can understand the Universe. That makes
us something very special."
(S. Hawking)
Volker Morath
Guess who knows how to build a virus in his own basement. And if you
need a straight opinion, go for Volker.
Citation: Quand tu veux construire un bateau, ne commence pas par
rassembler du bois, couper des planches et distribuer du travail, mais
reveille au sein des hommes le desir de la mer grande et large.
(Antoine de Saint-Exupéry)
Patrick Schindler
He is a hard worker, whether there is something to do in the
laboratory, or to eat meals for a whole team.
Citation: If You Want Peace, prepare for war. (Publius Flavius Vegetius
Renatus)
Timon Schober
Do you see this great wiki? Yes, this is the work of our great web programmer and computer scientist Timon.
Friends
Fabian Haas
He takes the best pictures ever and knows how to fight with photoshop.
