Mat hates to smile and requests that all photographic evidence of such activity be obliterated.
Fergus O'Brien
Degree: Biomedical Engineering
From: Northern Ireland
Fergus is currently estranged from his family for declaring that he prefers sweet potatoes to white potatoes.

Catriona won several Ginger of the Year awards until her hair slowly became too blonde to be considered such. Sadly, she is now “strawberry blonde”.
Oliver Hawes
Degree: Computing Science
From: Somerset
I made everyone else write a profile but haven’t bothered to do one for myself.
Zuhair Elgaid
Degree: Biochemistry
From: Scotland
Zuhair was our intern. Eat, sleep, iGEM repeat is his life motto
Advisors & Supervisors
Dr Julien Reboud
Julien's current research interests have a focus on integrating biology and engineering for the benefits of healthcare and industry. Two of his focuses are Acoustofluidics (for sample manipulation), and of course, synthetic biology.
Dr Sean Colloms
While not walking in the Scottish Highlands and shoulder crunching at prehistoric stone circles, Sean likes to tie knots in DNA and dream up new applications for DNA transposition and site-specific recombination.
James Provan
James was part of Glasgow's 2015 iGEM team, and loved it so much he's back for more.
Mhairi Davidson
Mhairi was also on last year's iGEM team, but decided to come back to spread joy and happiness during the difficult times of iGEM when nothing works.

iGEM 2017 Glasgow
