Head of Human Practices

Our fearless head of Human practices, who loves making plans and keeping us organized. (Be careful, she can be strict).

Chrysoula Tzima

Wet lab & Human Practices

A true MVP, that anyone would love to have in their team. She can complete any task in half a shake, but don’t tell her to join a late-night meeting; it’s her worst nightmare.

Fundraising & Wet Lab

Our tireless head of Fundraising. He literally went door-to-door, in order to find sponsors for our team.

Our Wet lab and Fundraising member with the most social concerns. He kept mentioning the working-class during experiments.

Social media Manager & Wet lab

Our smiley influencer and the youngest member of our team. Also, a crucial member of Wet lab.

Dry Lab & Human Practices

Our cool coordinator of Dry lab, who can't get nervous. Seriously, I have never seen this guy just a little bit anxious.

Our sci-tech master and creator of our wiki. I guess he can write whatever he wants about himself, when he will upload this file. (Don't believe what you read).

Our creative artist and graphic designer, who wished she had dressed up as a bacteriophage. (It's an inside joke, guys).

We are thankful to

Associate Prof. Michaelidis T.

As our Primary PI, he supported us from the very first minute. He kept on advising, proposing possible solutions, providing us with the necessary materials and challenging us to come up with the best design possible for our project. He believed in us, and we are grateful for his endless help.
