Why am I on iGEM: I believe strange but creative ideas change the world. I’m really looking for-ward to listening to other teams’ inventive projects and having a discussion with uni students all over the world.

JUNGHYUN LEE

Human practice team member

Field: Nursing

Dream: Push the boundaries

Why am I on iGEM: I believe that synthetic biology can be the future of medicine.

YoungWoo Choi

Human Practice Team member

Field: Biotechnology

Dream: Helping those in need, and making this world a better place.

Why am I on iGEM: Biology is fun, and building something is fun, so synthetic biology is double the fun

JungBin Moon

Human Practice Team member

Field: Biotechnology

Dream: Everything comes to those who wait

Why am I on iGEM: It is wonder-ful to solve social problems with synthetic biology. I want to study synthetic biology and learn many things in this iGEM, so I will always be a prepared person.

JungWon Choi

Dry Lab Leader

Field: Biotechnology

Dream: jobless millionaire

Why am I on iGEM: because i'm interested in synthetic biology. I'm really glad to be a part of the iGEM this year.

JINGI YEO

Dry lab member

Field: Biomedical Engineering

Dream: Let everyone enjoy their abilities beyond any environmental limitation

Why am I on iGEM: I’m really love with synthetic biology. iGEM is the best fit experience for me. I can share ideas of synthetic biology with global students and a great motivation to devote myself here.

JIWOO CHOI

Dry Lab Member

Field: Biotechnology

Dream: To be a member of the world who can help people

Why am I on iGEM: It is awesome that making new thing doesn’t exist in the world!

Hyunkyu Han

Wet lab leader

Field: Biotechnology

Dream: Let no one in the world replace me

Why am I on iGEM: Discovering new facts is a great pleasure. I was impressed by the fact that through experimentation, know-ledges we had only known in theory could be directly observed, and we could show that our thoughts were right and must be through the observation. I also feel responsible and rewarding that my work can substantiate, realize and consolidate our ideas. I believe our steps will come together to change the world, and we will move onto our dreams.

Yongjoon Jin

Wet lab member

Field: Biosystems & Biomedical sciences

Dream: Keep calm and cool-headed.

Why am I on iGEM: By studying synthetic biology, I learned the importance of classifying and sorting DNA sequences into functional parts, and of viewing life as the result of these parts. I would like to solve various diseases and social issues that separate humans from everyday life and cause many people to suffer with the attractive tool, synthetic biology. I will have fun talking with friends from all over the world who have similar interests with me.

Kwangho Son

Wet lab member

Field: Biotechnology

Dream: Prepare for the future based on logical thinking

Why am I on iGEM: Living things have many different and sophist-icated functions. Biology can use these functions to solve problems that cannot be solved by chemical or physical processes. Synthetic biology is the study of solving problems by using biology as a tool. I think the engineering approach to the problem is very helpful in solving it. This is why I became interested in synthetic biology. Through IGEM, I want to learn various perspectives and possibilities about synthetic biology.

Seyoung Park

Wet lab member

Field: Life science

Dream: Do whatever I want

Why am I on iGEM: To exper-ience worldwide science festival one more time. Also I want to start a science project and conduct some experiments again!
