Meet Our Team!
Roderick Meyer
Major: Biological Sciences
Role: Team Lead
As a member of our iGEM team, I overlooked the timely progression of the project, ensuring the successful cohesion of each interdisciplinary sub-team. I also facilitated collaborations with other iGEM teams, led team workshops, created and showcased our presentation, and helped each team member achieve their personal iGEM goal. I decided to join iGEM because it's a perfect example of the multidisciplinary environments present in every innovative workforce. As the team leader, I made it my priority to inspire and motivate our team in order to ignite empathy, curiosity, and ingenuity in the project we set out to explore.
Jacob Gottlieb
Major: Biological Sciences
Role: Associate Team Lead
I oversaw the team and made sure everyone was on track with their responsibilities in hopes of earning the gold medal. I chose iGEM because I have been interested in genetics ever since I was young and I truly believe genetic technology will save the world.
Cameron Conroy
Major: Computer Science & Statistics
Role: Software Lead & Modeling Team Member
I Developed and designed the Wiki. iGEM appealed to the broadness of my interests and its collaborative atmosphere was hard to turn down. I believe that opportunities like iGEM are paramount creative outputs that stimulate the development of intellectually curious students. Perhaps what is most exciting about iGEM and synthetic biology is that it is not just an intersection of the scientific disciplines, but the arts, humanities, and everything in between!

Jessie Griesheimer
Major: Criminology and Biological
Science
Role: Human Practices Team Lead
I am a senior at Florida State University and a 2018 iGEM member returning to the 2019 team. As lead of the Human Practices team I helped reach out to professionals in labs and within the citrus industry to try and find a potential solution to the problem citrus greening is causing. Through my research and interviews, I found potential hazards to our research and worked with the Design team to help minimize harm to the environment. I am passionate about this project due to my focus in biology being on ecology with interest in invasive species and animal sciences. Aside from iGEM, I enjoy watching anime and tending to my garden and crested gecko, Tiger Lily.
Kathleen McClellan
Major: Biological Sciences
Role: Human Practice Team Member
As a member of the Human Practices team, I helped determine possible avenues for the project and helped to reach out and make connections with potential mentors and experts in our field of research. I decided to join the iGEM team because I was excited by the idea of working together with a group of people to tackle an issue using genetic engineering, a field of biology that I had no prior experience with before iGEM.
Derica Parathundil
Major: Biological Sciences
Role: Visual Arts Lead & Human Practice Team Member
As part of the Human Practices team, I helped (am planning to help?) find consequences and public perceptions of the solution our team decided to pursue. I decided to be a part of iGEM because I wanted to be more immersed in the field of biology and learn about its many avenues.
Juan Martin Portilla
Major: Biological Science
Role: Team Leader
My priority throughout iGEM was ensuring the successful progression of our project. I personally worked on researching literature relevant to our designs, brainstorming the impacts of our system, interviews with professionals for human practice, discussions with financial supporters, organizing collaborations with other iGEM teams, facilitating team workshops, editing our wiki, and creating our presentation & amp; poster.
Conner Quinlan
Major: Biochemistry
Role: Design Team Member
Works to make sure the project is designed correctly. I have a lot of prior experience in the lab, certified by UF through their Biotility program, ran independent research on antibiotic resistance, and I have experience in bioinformatics. I'm a tech enthusiast with a background in IT from a hardware perspective and used to work for an IT business. I hope to continue to regenerative medicine in the future.
Hannah Pascoe
Major: Biological Sciences
Role: Create Team Lead
Hannah Pascoe
As the leader of the Create Team, I implemented my previous laboratory experience into
developing a practical solution
for Citrus Greening. I delegated tasks to my fellow create team members and was in charge of
performing experiments
using molecular biology techniques. I decided to join iGEM to improve my leadership skills
and to work as part of an
interdisciplinary team to solve complex problems using synthetic biology.

Major: Biological Sciences
Role: Create Team Member

I joined the iGEM team not only because of my love for
citrus and concern of how citrus greening could negatively impact
the great state of Florida, but because I felt it was a great opportunity to learn outside
of lecture halls. As a member
of the create team I was able to think critically and problem solve as I turned textbook
science into hands on science.
Nicholas Vazquez
Major: Biological Sciences
Role: Create Team Member
Nicholas Vazquez
As part of the create team, I was responsible for building and
testing the ideas to attack citrus greening in a
(cellular?) laboratory. I joined IGEM because I wanted a chance to work on a team to be able
to fix something in my
community with knowledge from my classes and other peoples experiences. As well as learn
more about what the future of
genetically engineered machines holds.
Shams Dhanani
Major: Mechanical Engineering
Role: Modeling Team Lead
I was responsible for the analysis of various data retrieved from our research. With a range of software and the techniques I've learned through rigorous coursework at my disposal, my responsibility was to ensure all data was set up and represented in its most rudimentary form. This allowed us to find relations in a wide data set in a short amount of time, pushing our research further.
