Student Profiles
Laina
Laina P. Magaya undergraduate Biology Major at Prairie View A&M University.Currently working on Microbial biotechnolgy applied to the environment at Prairie View A&M University under the Principal Inevstigator Dr R. Cuero. I have also worked in another project on microbiology techniquies involved in studies of Helicobatcer pylori and using plasmids from E.coli under Dr. John Knesek at Texas Woman's University. These experiences will nake me suitable candidate for the synthetic biology project with the Prairie View 2006 iGEM team.
Lesli
Lesli Caulfield undergraduate Chemical Engineering senior at Prairie View A&M University in Prairie View, TX. I have carried out research in Biosensors and Cell Adhesion at the University of Oklahoma ( summer of 2003, under Dr. David Schmidtke). I have done research in Characterization of Chiral Sulfoxidation by HRP at the University of Kansas REU (CEBC, summer 20005, under Dr. Aaron Scurto). Currently, I am working on Solid State and Submerged Fermentation Systems at Prairie View A&M-CEBC under Dr. Michael Gyamerah with four of my peers. As one can see, I have a diverse and unique research background. I am interested in Dr. Cuero’s research because it will allow me to not only enhance my research opportunities a bit further, but it will allow the creative side of me to be nurtured and encouraged. Being that he is one of the elite researchers’, I know I will learn a lot and excel in the iGEM team.
Osayamen
Osayamen Edigin is a Junior Chemistry and Biology major student at Prairie View A&M University.
Aneka
Aneka Atkinson is a Junior, working on a double major in Chemical Engineering and Mathematics at Prairie View A & M University.She hopes to become a Pharmacist and a Mathematics professor.
Christian
My name is Christian Cruz, I am a graduate student of chemical engineering at Prairie View A&M university. I have been working with Dr. Raul Cuero for the last two years,carrying out experiments related to electrochemistry and now using molecular biology techniques. Now with iGEM 2006 I see a chance for myself to put in practice all of my engineering knowledge and molecular experiences.
