<p id="one"> How it all began...
 +
</p>
 +
 +
<p id="two"> One of the most important things regarding iGEM is that this competition is so much about teamwork. When we all
 +
met for the first time in January, we were just 16 people from different academic backgrounds who wanted to learn more about
 +
synthetic biology and what it’s like to work in the lab. We didn’t really know what we were getting ourselves into – and
 +
that so many unsuccessful PCR’s, disappointing sequencing results, exhausting lab nights and quite a lot of discussions and
 +
quarrels were ahead of us. </br>
 +
Now we’ve worked together for almost 8 months, and have really become a team. Despite of some inevitable problems and issues,
 +
we overcame difficulties and realized a project we’re very proud to present at the Giant Jamboree in Boston. </br>
 +
Most of us were part of different subgroups, like Lab, Wiki, Fundraising or Human Practices, and learned heaps of new things.
 +
But of course iGEM wasn’t only about work – we participated in great events, like the European Meetup in Delft, the
 +
German Meetup in Dresden or the Practice Jamboree in Leuven. We did quite a few teambuilding activities and had a lot of fun
 +
together. All in all it was an unforgettable time, we made many new friends along the way and gained valuable experiences.

<h4 class="popup-description">Our half German, half Mexican and always-ready-to-spice-things-up friend.
 +
He studies Biotechnology and decided to join iGEM because it was a great opportunity to learn a lot of
 +
new things. There haven’t been many days Adrian wasn’t motivated to work. Even after some of his
 +
important DNA fragments were accidentally thrown away and we didn't know whether to laugh or cry,
 +
he kept up his good work. With all the efforts Adrian’s making, he surely is going to knock out all
 +
the genes. And as if all this risky lab work wasn’t enough, Adrian also likes to boulder in his free
 +
time.</h4>

people having different opinions than his own, and only gives in when a good argumentation stands

against him. When Caspar wants something, he’s not afraid of just going to important people without
 +
an appointment and there is no door which can stop him till he has got what he wants. He is also very
 +
cautious about the scientific correctness of the lab work. Not a mystery that in almost every case his
 +
work is absolutely correct! In his spare time, he sails the world and rebuilds classic cars.</h4>

She is constantly late, maybe because she is not averse to occasional partying, but we can very much rely on her as a treasurer for Team Aachen and in planning our trips.
 +
Originating from Zwickau in the east of Germany, she moved to Aachen to study Biotechnology. Tearing down walls, social and economic, is in her DNA:

She is involved in a development aid organization as well as a meeting point for refugees.</h4>

overwhelming majority of Biotechnology students who have absolutely no clue what he is talking about

running around, while Jonas calmly and fully concentrated sits on his chair, developing a 3D-printed

model of our hardware. Jonas is going to spend the next semester at UC Los Angeles

David, coming from lands far away where the temperature is kinder to the skin, has learnt through years

couldn’t be more easy-going… really, that’d be impossible. He’ll always work hard to deal with the

task at hand, even though he’ll usually start a little bit late (after midday is just the perfect time).

our project. Being the COO of our team, he organized a project at his old school, lots of talks with

politicians and our participation in many events. Fabian also loves uploading new Trello cards and

consequently generating Slack notifications in the middle of the night, driving the rest of us almost

crazy. To calm down after a long and thrilling week of iGEM, he enjoys to go fishing.  </h4>

<h4 class="popup-description">Milan is a 20-year old Biotechnology student, he loves fitness, games
 +
and good meals! Through fundraising Milan got us a lot of money, and he’s also responsible for creating
 +
our website, as he’s the only one skilled in this area.  His second most time-consuming activity in
 +
iGEM is to enjoy coffee. Milan has an ambiguous relationship with university (and life itself): on the
 +
one hand, he can forget about all lectures and all duties for a whole semester, but beyond this he can
 +
learn two months straight for only one exam. This ambivalent behaviour can be referred to as `the Milan
 +
experience`. </h4>

iGEM Team Aachen 2017

MEET THE TEAM

How it all began...

One of the most important things regarding iGEM is that this competition is so much about teamwork. When we all met for the first time in January, we were just 16 people from different academic backgrounds who wanted to learn more about synthetic biology and what it’s like to work in the lab. We didn’t really know what we were getting ourselves into – and that so many unsuccessful PCR’s, disappointing sequencing results, exhausting lab nights and quite a lot of discussions and quarrels were ahead of us.
Now we’ve worked together for almost 8 months, and have really become a team. Despite of some inevitable problems and issues, we overcame difficulties and realized a project we’re very proud to present at the Giant Jamboree in Boston.
Most of us were part of different subgroups, like Lab, Wiki, Fundraising or Human Practices, and learned heaps of new things. But of course iGEM wasn’t only about work – we participated in great events, like the European Meetup in Delft, the German Meetup in Dresden or the Practice Jamboree in Leuven. We did quite a few teambuilding activities and had a lot of fun together. All in all it was an unforgettable time, we made many new friends along the way and gained valuable experiences.

Supervisor

Without the help and support of our three supervisors, we wouldn’t have been able to realize our project (or even decide on a project idea).
Thanks for all your input, advice and time!
