Team Description

The Cornell iGEM team is a multidisciplinary team with 6 undergraduates with bioengineering, material science, biology and chemistry majors. Our rookie year has been an empowering year where the traditional listeners of knowledge have become creators.

Born in the ghettos of the LHC (Large Hadron Collider), Xing Xiong had an aptitude for physics and hardcore rapping. He was spitting out rhymes by the age of two and three quarters, and upon reaching high school, was dubbed “Xingularity” by his peers. Xing brought his rhymes to Cornell, and during his interview for joining the Cornell GEM team, his rap performance was so phenomenal that he immediately took over as Team Leader, no questions asked.

After being accepted into Cornell in 2007 (he is currently a junior BEE major), Ben set his sights on curing all the world’s problems. How did he plan on doing this? Well, establishing a universal dictatorship solely under his control did not work out so well, so he decided to join the Cornell Genetically Engineered Machines team instead.

Somehow, she managed to ace high school, get accepted into Cornell, and join the iGEM team, all from the seat of her 3 by 3 coaster car. How does she go to the bathroom? It’s a very simple process: magic. Since she is unable to leave her coaster car, she will be sending a surrogate to the jamboree in her place.
