Yijie Pan, a boy of 20, Molecule Master of our team, loyal servant of all E.coli in our team, feeding them with plasmids all day and all night. He is looking forward to the day when SwordS-Yang takes his swords and defeats all the Cancer cells on the battlefield.

Yiming Cai

Major: Biology

His name is Yiming Cai, Cell Master of our team, considerate babysitter of all the cells in our team. He had to sacrifice his entire holiday taking care of these little creatures and finally got a taste of being a father ahead of time.

Ao Feng

An iGEM team member concerning Human Practice     and Interlab.
A student in Shanghai Medical College of Fudan     University.
A lover of cloud, whale, guitar and vehicle.
Always be curious about the world.
Awaiting to be your friend.

Xinxuan Xiong

Major: Electronic Engineering

Her English name is Merak. Merak is also the name of a star from the Big Dipper which is homophonic with her Chinese name. Merak is never tired of chirping enthusiasms and reading poems. As the only engineering student in iGEM Fudan, she really learns a LOT.

Tong Fu

Major: Clinical Medicine

Tong Fu, a typical medical student in Shanghai Medical College of Fudan University. Take part in Human Practice and do some wet lab whenever needed. iGEM makes her a busy bee rather than a salted fish lying on the bed after class. The excellent teammates make this competition enjoyable.

"Magic wand. Magic wand. Help up finish all the work in a day."

Yan Liu

Major: Biochemistry

Liu Yan is a postgraduate in Fudan University, majoring in biochemistry. She took part in the wet lab, both molecular cloning and cell experiments.



“Wish we can do it!”

Yiheng Wang

Major: What do U mean by 'Major'?

Interested in all areas of human knowledge, deeply intrigued by life science and especially neuroscience on top of all. He engages himself in learning various disciplines of science and technology, while also taking great interests in literature, music and arts. Being a mathematics lover, he constructed the Probabilistic Model for our project. As a programming lover, he developed our software, Netro. (And he drew the funny guys you see on this page.)


He is always asking...
