        My name is John Schumm and I am a Junior in the college of Agricultural and Biological Engineering focusing in Biological and Food Process Engineering. I am from Tucson, AZ, and in high school I realized that I want to focus my education in something that related math, chemistry, and biology. This lead me to Purdue University where I am a third generation Purdue engineer. I currently work in LORRE labs (Laboratory of Renewable Resources in Engineering) and am working on a number of different projects involving the fermentation of cellulistic material. I attend University Lutheran Church and am a member of the church council. I am also a member of Beta Sigma Psi Fraternity.

This past spring I officially transferred from the school of Ag and Bio Engineering in to Genetic Biology.  I joined iGEM because it sounded interesting and it would give me a lot more practical experience in Genetics. Since I am a recent transfer I have limited knowledge to offer but, am willing to help out in any way that I can.  I am also looking forward to participating in the competition in my future years at Purdue after I have accumulated some more knowledge on the subject and lab procedures.

Hello, my name is Aaron Young and I will be a sophomore in the school of biomedical engineering at Purdue next fall. I have lived in West Lafayette, Indiana all of my life and graduated slightly over a year ago from Harrison High School as valedictorian. I have a variety of interests and participate in a number of Purdue organizations that correspond to these. Besides iGEM which I recently got involved with, I also participate with the biomedical engineering society here at Purdue, the Shakespeare society in which I became a founding member of this past year, and also Campus Crusade for Christ, a Christian organization that is on many campuses throughout the country. My favorite hobbies include, but are hardly limited to, hanging out with my group of friends, video games, and tennis. I am one of a minority group of people that actually enjoy school and I hope to go into graduate school and do research once I finish my undergraduate degree. My favorite academic subjects include biology – which makes sense considering I’m doing this project and entering biomedical engineering, programming, because its one of the few areas where everything is perfectly logical (well nearly), and history among others. Anyway, I look forward to working with everyone, and I hope that some of my skills will help as I’m not exactly an expert in the field we are doing, but at least I’ll have fun learning what ever I can about the project and the biology involved!
