<blockquote>Wayne Materi is an Assistant Research Officer in Nano Life Sciences at the National Institute for Nanotechnology (NINT)He has a BSc. in Computing Science from Simon Fraser University (1990) and spent several years as a developer of commercial accounting and business softwareHe earned his PhD in Molecular Biology and Genetics from the University of Alberta (2004), investigating neural development in the microscopic nematode ''C. elegans''. Since joining NINT in 2004, his work in Synthetic Biology has focused on improving the ability to reliably design and construct novel genetically modified bacteria to perform useful manufacturing and medical functions. Wayne was an advisor to the 2007 University of Alberta Butanerds iGEM team and helped guide them to a First Place finish in the Energy Category.
