Esther Kim (Life Sciences: Human Biology, English)

  • Esther is in her fourth year of study at the University of Toronto. Any time outside of school work is usually spent gaming, eating, gaming, eating, reading, and sleeping, usually in that order. On certain occasions she can be found practicing Tai Chi with the U of T Tai Chi club (usually when the scale reads too high), or writing novels that will never be published ("This will be a masterwork of fantasy! It'll have...hobbits! Wait, what do you mean this was already published?").

Nimalan Thavandiran (Engineering Science: Biomedical Option)

Nimalan.jpg

  • Nimalan Thavandiran will be soon completing his B.A.Sc. in Engineering Science with a specialization in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Toronto. He is currently at the Institute of Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering looking at the genetic and electrophysiological characterization of human Embryonic Stem Cell-derived cardiomyocytes. He helped found and organize the Undergraduate Nanotechnology Conference 2007 held in North America, and has presented his research at various conferences including the Karolinska Institute International Exchange Conference for Developmental Biology. He is very much interested in genetic engineering and the initiatives iGEM has created for the field.

Mimi Zhang (Life Sciences: Developmental Biology, English)

Mimi.jpg

  • I am a 4th year studying Developmental Biology and English. This is my first time participating in the iGEM competition. When I am not working or studying, I enjoy rowing, architecture, and Bon Jovi.

Kirill Zubovsky (Mechanical and Industrial Engineering)

Kirill.jpg

  • Kirill is a third year Industrial Engineering student. Although his knowledge of biology is limited to one eng. biology course that he's currently taking, his excitement and desire to see the team succeed goes far beyond. At school, Kirill is a busy guy. When he's not doing his homework, he's usually running the Cannon (http://cannon.skule.ca ), the official UofT Engineering newspaper, and doing aikido among other things.
