ETH Zurich 2007 iGEM Team

In this page, you can find more information on this year's team of ETH Zurich. If you also want to see photos taken during the preparation for this year's iGEM, don't forget to see Pictures! as well.

The ETHZ iGEM2007 Team!


Team Description

Our team is a combination of hard-working biologists and engineers! :)

Undergraduate Students

  • Martin Brutsche.jpg
    Hi, my name is Martin, and I'm a Master Student in Biomedical Engineering at ETH Zurich. Before that, I did my Diploma studies in Mechanical Engineering, at the University of Applied Sciences in Constance, Germany. I love sailing, snooker and holidays in Denmark. I joined iGEM to learn more about synthetic biology and labwork (more info).
  • Katerina Dikaiou.jpg
    Hi, I am Katerina! I'm one of the engineers in the group - I hold a Diploma in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece, and I am currently a Master student of Biomedical Engineering at ETH Zurich. I enjoy working at the interface between engineering and biology, and I also love music, literature and (very) long walks(more info).
  • Raphael Gubeli.jpg
    Hi, I'm Raphael, Master Student of Biotechnology at ETH Zurich. So, that's why you can find me mainly in the lab (day and night!). Anyway, if there is time to see the daylight, you can find me on my bicycle in the city, or skiing down the mountains. I joined iGEM because I think that there is really a need to find international standards like the "biobricks". Of course, despite having a lot of work, it is a lot of pleasure and fun, working on this project (more info).
  • Sylke hoehnel2.jpg
    Hello! I'm Sylke, a B.Sc.-Biotech Student at the ETH Zurich. I was born in Germany, and have lived in London for four years. So, as you can see, I like jetting around the world. I found iGEM as a great opportunity to be part of a team, working on a fun project that's also related to my studies. Apart from Bio-books, I like art, swimming and snowboarding (more info).

  • Passfoto.jpg
    My name is Stefan, M.Sc.-Biotechnology student at ETH Zurich. This means that I like cells, genes and bioreactors... especially bioreactors... the bigger the better, yeah!

  • Christian Kemmer.jpg
    Gruezi, I am Christian. I am the only graduated Biology-guy in our Team. I studied Electrical Engineering, Biology and Bioprocess Engineering in Germany and Finland. Beside my studies, I worked in serveral scientific Institutes, e.g., the European Neuroscience Institute Goettingen (Germany) and the Bioprocess Engineering Laboratory in Oulu (Finland). I graduated in 2005 with a diploma in Biology. Currently I am a PhD-student at the ETH. I am doing research in applied Biotechnology and synthetic Biology. ([http://www.fussenegger.ethz.ch/people/kemmerc more info]).
  • Joe Knight.jpg
    Joe Knight here. I am a PhD candidate performing research in biomedical engineering at the ETH. Before coming to the ETH I was the 2005-06 Grube Fellow at Stanford University's Biodesign Innovation Program. I joined iGEM because I believe some of the greatest innovations in biotechnology of tomorrow will be made in synthetic biology, and I hope to be part of it all! (more info).
  • Markus Uhr.jpg
    I'm Markus Uhr, a PhD candidate in Computational Systems Biology, at ETH Zurich. I did my MSc in Computational Science and Engineering, so I'm the guy that likes big equations and solving them on a computer ;-).
