THE SUPERVISORS
Dr. Mayi Arcellana-Panlilio
Dr. Mayi is a Senior Instructor in the Cumming School of Medicine and has mentored University of Calgary iGEM teams since 2011. She firmly believes in the iGEM project being the students’ work from ideation and development to execution and dissemination. However, she also believes in being there for her students, as listener, adviser, sense-maker. Everyone knows she’s a real taskmaster.
Dr. L-V
Dr. L-V is a Senior Instructor in the Department of Biological Sciences and has been involved in a support capacity (basic biochemistry advice) with iGEM teams for the past 3 years. It has been exciting to watch the the iGEM teams struggle a bit in the beginning and emerge victorious usually 24 hours before Wiki-freeze. Dr. L-V “only” comes for the chocolate cookies available during weekly iGEM meetings.
