Karolis Kidykas

  1. How are you today?
    Fine Thanks!
  2. How and why did you get involved in the University of Glasgow iGEM Team 2007?
    I found a leaflet advertising iGEM competition in one of my lectures. It was very appealing offer. I was very interested in biology while at school but engineering won my sympathies back then. It was an opportunity to go into field I am interested in but has little to do with aerospace just before I graduate and submerge myself into professional life.
  3. What do you feel you have gained from working in the Glasgow iGEM Team?
    I always thought about any form of life as of a complex machine which we will be able to control one day. This project proved it to me that I was right. Of course I may not be alive to whiteness it!
  4. Where do you see yourself two years from now?
    Airbus? ESA? I love Europe, but if bad luck follows me I will consider Boeing or NASA!
  5. If you had £50,000 to invest in science, what would you do with it?
    Probably not in Biology! Sorry! I have an engineers blood
  6. What has been your favourite iGEM moment so far?
    I could easily name the scariest one, but its hard to think of any favorite one. There were quite a few of them.
  7. If you could be the inventor of anything, what would it be?
    Antigravity Engine! Though I know it is probably impossible, but you said anything.
  8. What are you doing this weekend?
    Either one of four: Tennis, Travelling, Working on my project, partying
  9. Tell us a secret.
    It will no longer be a secret then.
  10. Describe yourself in five words.
    That would be harder then to push a camel through a needle hole.
  11. Make up a haiku on the spot.
    Sorry, times up!
