Undergraduate Team Members

Elizabeth Andry


Hometown- Washingtonville, NY

Major- Mechanical Engineering

Favorite Hobby- I enjoy building 3D models of buildings

What does iGEM mean to you and what do you wish to get out of this whole experience- iGEM is a chance for me to get some hands on experience in synthetic biology and genetic engineering. I hope that this experience will open new opportunities for me in the future, get to know another field of engineering, and make some new friends.

Samuel Corby


Hometown- Cornwall, NY

Major- Mechanical Engineering

Favorite Hobby- I love to play instruments and experience music in as many ways as possible.

What does iGEM mean to you and what do you wish to get out of this whole experience- I aspire to become a better contributor towards the science community and grow as much as I can out of iGem.

Gregory Sanossian


Hometown- Garden City, NY

Major- Chemical Engineering

Favorite Hobby- Body building

What does iGEM mean to you and what do you wish to get out of this whole experience- Valuable research experience and broadening my scientific knowledge

Diana A.Quintuña


Hometown- Washington Heights, NY

Major- Mechanical Engineering

Favorite Hobby- Listening to music and reading

What does iGEM mean to you and what do you wish to get out of this whole experience- A better understanding of biofuel cells, and the of work put in to create one. Creating a bond with my teammates.

Farzana Begum


Hometown- Bronx, NY

Major- Chemical Engineering

Favorite Hobby- Biking

What does iGEM mean to you and what do you wish to get out of this whole experience- From the iGem experience I hope to work in a team to learn about bio fuel cells, nanotechnology, and new lab techniques and skills. Through an international collaboration with other teams I hope to broaden my horizon on other topics in the field of synthetic biology being explored all over the world. Through outreach and education, explaining our project to other teams, teachers, and students of different age groups, I hope to be able to rethink the directions we could take with our project, to improve my presentation skills.

Amanda Lazkani


Hometown- Staten Island, NY

Major- Chemical Engineering

Favorite Hobby- Music

What does iGEM mean to you and what do you wish to get out of this whole experience- By joining the iGEM team, I hope to broaden my knowledge on synthetic biology and nanotechnology and get hands-on experience in this field by constantly working in the lab. This experience will allow me to collaborate with some of the biggest schools internationally, providing me with connections that will benefit my future, specifically my career. This project perfectly fits chemical engineering, further expanding my studies.
