Panagiotis Oikomonou
Panagiotis Oikonomou is a sophomore in Columbia’s School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, planning to study Biomedical Engineering. He is originally from Athens, Greece. Before iGEM, he was involved in the optimization of a plasma extraction and cell free detection device, combining microfluidics and “lab-on-a-chip” technologies to create a versatile and efficient point of care device. During high-school, he participated in research concerning the identification of the specific role and the regulation of the cell cycle regulator protein Emi2 in living oocytes, testing the hypothesis that Emi 2 has the role of surveying proper M-phase progression Meiosis I and mitosis in certain cancer cell types. On campus, he is a board member of Columbia University American Association of Medical Students, the co-chair of the Bioethics committee, and an organizational member in the board of the university's Biomedical Engineering Society, In his free time, he enjoys basketball, reading non-fiction, and exploring the city.
