Who we are
We are eight students from the University of Southern Denmark (SDU), who found each other through a common wish to explore synthetic biology.
Students
Anna Linhardt Hansen
I am studying medicine on 5th semester at the University of Southern Denmark, and my motivation for joining SDU´s iGEM is numerous. First of all, studying medicine does not prepare the ground for scientific work, which I think is a petty. Second, I think its cool to make friends among different field of study. Third, but presumably most important; I would like to have some fun.
Julius Frederiksen
My name is Julius Fredens, I’m 24 years old and I study biochemistry and molecular biology at 8th semester. Although spending a lot of time in the lab doing projects on lipid metabolism in C. elegans and protein modifications in nerve terminals, I have never been in touch with genetic engineering or even worked with single-celled organisms.
When I think about all the opportunities in genetic manipulation, I can’t live without knowing the techniques. And learning this discipline by hands-on experiences together with a great team – in competition with others ;o) – sounds just pretty nice!
Kir Jacobsen
9th semester Biochemistry & Molecular biology, 24, experience with cell culturing, protein purification with focus on phosphoproteins and mass spectrometry. Additionally, experience with purification of DNA from tissue and copy number surveillance.
I always seek new areas of study, because I find the world of life sciences very exciting. When the opportunity came up to do something with bacteria, I was interested right from the start, because I havent really worked in the area of prokaryotes before and I was eager to explore it.

Motivation: I found synthetic biology to be an exciting new field to explore. It has a lot of potential for real world applications and iGEM provides a perfect setup for us students to wrestle with new ideas and projects.
About me: I study medicine and am currently on my sixth semester here at SDU. I've worked on detecting LOH in a rare cancer called multiple self-healing squamous epithelioma at Odense University Hospital and spent some time at University of Illinois a summer ago trying to be helpful at Kelly Tappendens lab. My bachelor thesis had the inspiring name: A Systematic Comparison of Cystatin C Based Formula's and The Creatinin Based Schwartz Formula for Judging Kidney Functions in Children.

Where we're from
We are all from the [http://sdu.dk University of Southern Denmark] in Odense, which is located smack in the middle of Denmark. It's a small town of about 180.000 inhabitants, of which quiet a few are students.
