Michael Milevskiy.
Michael Milevskiy:

Studying: Bachelor of BioMedical Science, Specialising in Genetics and Developmental Biology

About me: I love basketball, which is why i am in Boston I will definitely be going to see a Celtics game. I find genetics and the development and differentiation of embryos to be the most interesting aspects of biology. After iGEM is done for the year i plan on undergoing a research project and maybe do something closely related to one of our projects.

Florencia Camus:

Studying: Bachelor of Science (Majors in Genetics and Evolutionary Biology)

About me: Originally from Chile, Flo has lived in Canada, Chile and Australia (not in that order). She knew that science was her calling after working all her senior year at Santiago College on Drosophila melanogaster on the inheritance of sex-linked traits. Graduated with honours in the subject of biology she moved to the University of Queensland for her Bachelors degree where she has spent the last three years. During her first two years she was a Vacation Scholar for Prof. Istvan Toth where she searched for Beta-lactam antibiotic carriers, in order to make them orally available. Currently she is in Dr. Daniel Ortiz-Barrientos lab testing sexual selection in angiosperms and the rapid evolution of reproductive proteins
Liam Nolan.
Liam Nolan:

Studying: Bachelors of Science/Engineering(Chemical and Biological)

Interests: Research, piano, choir(x2), soccer, tennis, and everything nerdy...

In his spare time: Spare time? SPARE time?!

Other: Perhaps a little too enthusiastic about cards, Monty Python and Black Books for his own good.
