Tarun Mahajan
Drylab Graduate Advisor
I'm born and raised in Stockholm and currently study chemical engineering at KTH. I love research and applied to iGEM so I could be involved with research and meet like-minded students from all over the world. I'm a competitive person and very excited to work with this year's team to improve our skills for the future!
Carl Schultz
Graduate Advisor
I come from a small town in north-eastern France. Back there I studied chemistry, but I came to Sweden to study medical biotechnology. I joined iGEM because I wanted to work on a fun scientific project and meet people from different backgrounds. Besides science, I love books, dancing and travelling.
William Woodruff
Wetlab Graduate Advisor
I was born in Indonesia and I came to Sweden to pursue my Master degree in Biomedicine. I am always excited about research activities and have joined some research competition beforehand. Aside from doing interesting work in IGEM, I also want to make a friend and have fun.

I am an aspiring mature grown up coming from India. Right now in Stockholm getting a master's degree in biomedicine from Karolinska Institutet. Something that Stockholm has taught me 'Life happens but fika always helps.' Joined iGEM to fulfil the dream to feel like the scientists who made X-men but I will call my transformed bacteria X-bac.
Jefrin Joseph
Wet Lab
I grew up in Lund, a small town in south of Sweden but moved to Stockholm to pursue the medical program at KI. I love the problem solving aspect of research and am fascinated by the many ways that science can be communicated to have an i mpact. Combine this with a fun, international environment of like minded people and you have iGEM!
Kristin Lai
Wet Lab
I come from a village in Southern Greece. I joined iGEM because I just wanted to accept the challenge in both scientific and personal aspects. I love watching people becoming a team and working in order to accomplish the same goal; good science! Almost forgot, I love summer!

Hi, I come from Vienna, Austria, and I am studying Biomedicine at KI. I think great research needs innovative ideas, background knowledge and financial support. iGEM combines all of these factors which fascinates me. What I experienced so far in the iGEM Stockholm 2020 team are creative, hard-working and warm-hearted colleagues.
