He is also currently the acting president of the Organization of Botany Students (OBS).
Winnie is entering 4th year cell biology. She does not have a lot of hobbies (and had a hard time spelling "hobbies"). Her favorate thing to do is sleep....
Benny is entering his fifth year of study in UofA's Electrical Engineering (Biomedical Specialization) program, having transferred from the Engineering Physics program. This is his first year participating in the iGEM competition. He joined the team in hopes of gaining field experience, and meeting potential colleagues from around the world. In his spare time, he enjoys writing/playing music on his electric guitar, studying new languages (Mandarin, Japanese, and eventually Spanish), video games, reading, and just chilling in general.
Saima Zamir is in her third year of Biological Sciences Program at U of A and a proud member of 2008 iGEM Team. She plans to be a hot shot neurosurgeon one day. In her spare time, she works diligently on building her Zamir Memorial Hospital, one fantasy brick at a time - in addition to glass etching and pencil sketching. With her dancing shoes and Mighty wings, she is going places!! |
