Meet the Team
Ina
- DNA Origami
- wet lab
- inventory
Ina
Ileana (“Ina”) is another 3.5 year student in Chemical and Biological engineering (bio option). Ina hopes to someday make an impact in her community through biomedical engineering (the possibilities are endless!!), but for now you may spot her having fun under the sun, figuring out where she left her phone or contemplating on her next great adventure. Her favourite flavour for any occasion is mango.
Jeff
- Gold Nanoparticles
- wet lab
- public outreach
Jeff
Jeffrey is a 3.5 year student in Chemical and Biological Engineering, with an emphasis on the biological part. He seems like a typical hyperactive guy, but actually enjoys tea ceremonies, studying biochemistry, and spending evenings in quiet reflection.
Nathan
- DNA Origami
- wet lab
- gels
Nathan
Nathan is a fourth year Chemical and Biological Engineering student at UBC in a five year program consisting of both co-op work experience and the Pre-Med Alternative Path. He has aspirations of pursuing a career in the biomedical field while maintaining a healthy lifestyle playing soccer, swimming, and running along the beach.
Alyssa
- Graphics design
- dry lab modelling
Alyssa
Alyssa is a year 3.5 student pursuing a Combined Major in Microbiology and Computer Science at UBC. She is interested in the increasing integration of computation with research in the life sciences and biomedical data, with aspirations to work in clinical or health informatics. In her little spare time, she also enjoys cooking, photography and playing the guitar

Dan Fu
I am a 4th year student in Electrical Engineering with a profound interest in nanotechnology. I am interested in a wide variety of topics, but I won't bore you with a list! In any case, the appeal of DNA nanotechnology is the massive potential it has across multiple disciplines, and BIOMOD has been a great opportunity to get cracking on that iceberg!
Jasper
- Gels
- website
- wet lab
Jasper
Jasper is currently in his fourth year studying Applied Animal Biology and Biochemistry at UBC. He is passionate about biotechnology and wants to devote his entire life to nano particles.
Amin

Amin
Amin is a second year Microbiology and Immunology student at UBC. After joining the UBC BIOMOD program, his interests in Microbiology and Biotechnology have dramatically increased; he hopes this trend will continue.
Issy
- Gold nanoparticles
- video narration
- AFM
- wet lab
- public outreach
Issy
Isabel is a fourth year Chemistry student with an interest in its applications in Biology. BIOMOD has been an amazing experience for her to develop a passion for Biotechnology. Although she spends about 75% of her time panicking over how many tasks she has to perform within a given time, she somehow manages to get them done. She looks forward to graduating and broadening her lab experience.
Peter
- Liposomes
- anchoring
- gels
- DNA purification
- inventory
Peter
I love amazon and purifying DNA! Peter is a fourth year student studying Microbiology and Immunology. He is very interested in regenerative medicine and nanotechnology, and hopes to develop crazy technologies from them! If you can’t find him, he’s probably in the lab purifying the wretched DNA structures.
Thanks to all the tremendously talented students joining us in the new semester!
