Undergraduates

Team Leader

Shu Jing

Shu Jing is the NTU@iGEM '09 team leader. She is a year 3 student in the Division of Bioengineering, School of Chemical & Biomedical Engineering.

Animation specialist

Zhu Meng

Zhu Meng is also a year 3 student from the Division of Bioengineering; he will be directly in charge of the characterization of one of our parts. He is also undertaking an animation side-project to illustrate our system.



Lab manager

Mervin

Mervin is our industrious Lab manager. He is a year 4 student from the School of Biological Sciences, and currently plans to pursue post-graduate Medicine.

Lab manager

Arshath

Arshath is a third year Bioengineering student, and is also one of our Lab managers. He is unofficially the team cheerleader as he actively works on keeping our spirits up all the time.



Business manager

Kuan Chien

Kuan Chien (KC for short) is the fourth Bioengineering undergraduate of the team, and is also our capable Business Manager. As a form of endearment, we refer to KC as our team mascot.

Modelling Guru

Samuel

Samuel is a final year Bioengineering student, who is assigned to be in charge of modelling and simulation. He will continue pursuing certain aspects of our iGEM project as part of his final year project on synthetic biology.



Characterization & Protocol

Ming Hao

Ming Hao is a final year student from the School of Biological Sciences. He will be involved in characterizing one of the parts the team has set out to express, among other things.
