Team Members

Team leader

Shanti Ricke

Shanti was one of this year’s team leaders and engaged with the development and execution of our project idea. He chose our target organisms Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumoniae and the corresponding siderophores and genes. Furthermore, he designed our BioBricks and spend most his time in both the S1 and S2 labs to supervise and perform the experiments. His responsibilities included the organisation of the chemistry labs and the S2 lab and the communication with our cooperation partners and guest speakers.
He arranged a lot of the preparations and execution of our Human Practices activities. He also had a part in sponsoring, writing our Wiki and established himself as contact person for everybody. If you have any questions or problem – he’s your man!

Vice-Team leader

Elisabeth Orlowski

Elli was also a team leader mostly in charge of sponsoring, Social Media and lend a hand with our wiki and the lab work in the S1 and S2 life science labs and the cell culture. She responsible for the crowd funding campaign and involved in all legal matters and support for our sponsors.

Alina Nicolai

Alina was one of our two vice team leaders this year. She worked in the S1- and S2- lab. She was also involved in sponsoring, our wiki and human practices.

Head of Sponsoring

Valerie Heine

Valerie was our golden girl and sponsoring queen involved in everything organising. She spent every free minute in the labs where she proved herself (basically) irreplaceable. She took care of keeping everything in order and made sure we did not descend into chaos. Besides she found time to work on our wiki (and harassing everybody into keeping the lab books updated) and helped organising our Human Practices activities.

Head of Human Practices

Geoffrey N. Youett

Geoffrey is a true organisation talent and knows probably more people than all our team members together. Consequently, he took charge of our Human Practices, made contacts and wrote application letters for our events. Despite not having a background in science, he joined the lab team and helped in sponsoring and writing of our wiki. He also assisted with several cooperations.

Head of Finances

Ruth Rietow

Ruth has a rare gift for numbers and took care of all our finances and accounting, which she did formidable. She was involved in basically every part of our project and spend a considerable amount of time in the S1 and S2 labs, helped with sponsoring and wrote parts of our wiki. She also kept team spirit alive thanks to her amazing baking skills.

Biochemistry

Guillermo Molina

Guillermo worked in the S1 and S2 lab. He wrote on our wiki and generously shared the chocolate he always had in his coat and that helped to prevent the occasional nervous breakdown. Also without him we would have probably starved, as he always prepared and organized food for everyone.

Annika Soltau

Annika is a treasure in the lab. She kept the work in the S1 lab alive and moved in the S2 lab later. She helped with the sponsoring too and worked on our wiki.

Desiree Brösamle

Desiree was a real help in the lab. She worked mainly in the S1 lab and took charge of the S2 lab every now and then lab. She was involved in sponsoring and the wiki and made sure we took a break to have lunch during lab hours.

Franziska Dörr

Franzi worked in the S1 lab and helped with the sponsoring.

Svenja Reich

Svenja was involved I the S1 lab work and helped with the sponsoring and our wiki.

Timo "Kutte" Zeimet

Kutte worked in the S1 and S2 lab and helped with sponsoring and the wiki.

Kamil Grzegorczyk

Kamil contributed the foundation of our project by bringing up the idea of using gallium siderophores as an antibacterial strategy.

Chemistry

Carla von Salisch

Carla performed a chemical synthesis of desferrithiocine, helped in the S1 lab, with sponsoring and managed the ordering of the chemicals.

Jan-Christian Raabe

Jan-Christian synthesised the siderophor nor-pyocheline and performed the complexation with gallium. He also helped in the S1 lab, with sponsoring and writing our wiki.

Martin Borowski

Martin worked on two ways to synthesise the siderophore pyocheline to determine how to achieve the best yield. He was involved in sponsoring and the wiki too.

Nanoscientists

Tim Erichlandwehr

Tim helped to develop the nano part of our project and established the contact to Prof. Trebbin, who supervised the nanoscience project. He also helped with sponsoring.

Nico Brkovic

Nico developed the PDMS chip, the membrane and the microfluidic device with Ramakrishnan, a doctorate student in our supervising group. He also helped in the S1 and S2 labs, with sponsoring and the wiki. He organised the system for the pump and the devices.

Sören Hecht

Sören worked in the S1 lab, helped with the sponsoring and the organising of the pump for the nano experiments. He also wrote part of our wiki and was involved in public relations.

Graphics

Jannes Ernsting

Jannes is part of the graphic design team and was responsible for our web design.

Leona Bruners

Leona is also part of the graphic design team and made the model for our logo, and our famous schokofroschkarten.

Julian Strunck

Julian is another graphic design student who developed the logo with Tom with Leona’s model as template.

Tom Böhl

Tom developed the logo with Julian after Leonas’s template.
Jannes, Leona, Julian and Tom worked together on the design and corporate design and helped us chose our team name. They also worked on our Social Media presentation, took our team photos and filmed the Crowd-founding video. To sum it up: everything that looks good is their work!

Psychology

Frank Olaf Lohmann

Frank-Olaf was our person to talk to about every possible problem within the team. He is very experienced in the business environment and project planning. With his experience and psychological backround he provided us with many insights regarding team structure, workflow and communications. He also did a retrospective with us to work out what went well and where our project could have needed some improvement.
