GARRETT HINTON
Garrett Hinton is a Senior at Sky View High School in Smithfield, UT. He began his research experience at USU in 2006 as he was starting his freshman year in high school. He was a member of the USU iGEM team in 2008, and is excited to be involved again this year. For this project, Garrett performed various lab procedures, including DNA purification, gel electrophoresis, restriction enzyme digestions, ligations, and more. Additionally, he helped out in the lab by making medias and monitoring experiments. Outside of the lab, Garrett likes basketball and ping pong.
JEFF KARREN
Brad is a graduate student in the Biological and Irrigation Engineering at Utah State University. His personal research is centered around analyzing an unknown microbial community, and characterizing it's genetic phylogeny. Brad is participating in the iGEM competition for the first time, and has enjoyed being a part of the group. He has a passion for caving, and tries to go as often as the team would let him. Other than that, he enjoys rock climbing, camping, the occasional computer game, and is excited for the duck hunting season. Brad was primarily responsible for culturing the cyanobacteria, and conducting the tri-parental mating procedure, and generally helped out around the lab.
JODY JEREZ
Jody Jerez is a senior at InTech Collegiate High School in North Logan, Utah. She has been interested in biological engineering and decided to participate in iGEM to learn more about it. This is her first year participating in iGEM and she has learned a lot and enjoys what she was able to do for the team. Jody contributed by doing general laboratory procedures in the lab, as well as adding content to the wiki. Other than learning more about biological engineering, Jody enjoys hiking, dancing, and rock climbing.
TYREL RUPP
Tyrel is a senior at a Sky View High School near USU. In the spring of 2009 his friend Garrett Hinton exposed him to synthetic biological engineering by inviting him to take an internship class. Ty spent the summer working for the Synthetic Biomanufacturing Center, which lead to his participation in iGEM. Over the past few months, he has learned a lot about synthetic biology and the research process. Among other things, Ty enjoys mountain biking and snowboarding in the mountain ranges above USU. For iGEM, Ty has helped carry out basic laboratory procedures and contributed some to the team’s wiki design.
