Charley Rees (Junior, mechanical Engineering)
If you need any proof that irony is a fickle mistress, I am a local Evanston townie who grew up making fun of nerdy NU students. As a Wildcat, I spend my days as a mechanical engineering student who loves math and building things. Some of my many eclectic interests include product design, manufacturing, renewable energy, and why people are interested in the Kardashians. When I’m not doing STEM related activities, you can find me at the beach, a Will Ferrel Movie, or doing a cheesy 90’s workout video.
Katerina (Senior, Biomedical Engineering)
I am a fourth-year Biomedical Engineering student hoping to pursue medical school following graduation. Having grown up in Athens, Greece scientific terminology does not intimidate me, although I still struggle to pronounce the most obscure names of bacteria. I am currently involved in imaging research for cancer diagnostics, but recently became fascinated by the field of synthetic biology and by how we can engineer bacteria to do the unimaginable. When not in lab, I’m probably reading mystery novels, solving Rubik’s cube puzzles or trying to improve my tennis serve.
Jack Arnold (Junior, CHemical Engineering)
I am a third year undergraduate majoring in Chemical Engineering and pursuing a minor in chemistry and biotechnology. I have had little research experience thus far, but I am excited about expanding my skills as part of Northwestern’s 2017 iGEM team. I plan to start research in a lab during fall quarter 2017, and plan to eventually pursue my PhD in chemical engineering with an emphasis on synthetic biology. My interests include rock climbing, photography, and baking various desserts that will knock your socks off
Ayesha (Junior, Biomedical Engineering)
I’m a junior studying Biomedical Engineering. I have had very little wet lab experience coming into iGEM, but I am always up for the challenge and excited to get my feet wet (see what I did there?). Genetic engineering fascinates me and I’m ready to take part in furthering the field. I’m from Chicago, born and bred, something I almost never fail to mention.When I find free time, I like to take pictures, watch Christopher Nolan movies, listen to rap and exploring the city.
