Behind every good team is an even better team - same with us this year. Without you our project would not have been realized this way. Thank you for having our back and showing us what is important when building a science project.

Help and support
Jun. Prof. Dr. Ilka Axmann – Our primary PI
Thank you for any expertise we received when we suddenly stood in your office. Especially in the field of cyanobacteria your advice including sending three advisors from your team was a great help. Also thank you for your calm nature, your positive attitude, the help at each meeting, the talk at our lecture series and lending us almost all your flasks for our experiments.
Prof. Dr. Oliver Ebenhoeh – Our secondary PI
Even though we did not always understand them straight away, many thanks for the incredible and patiently given know-how in modeling. In addition to that, you were always accessible to us and gave us input in every meeting that influenced our project again and again.
Prof. Dr. Markus Pauly – Our hero
Thank you for providing us with not just an entire lab, all the consumables, and the expertise of you and the entire team, but also for the trust in us to let us work independently and allowing us all the freedoms we had.
Christiane Heil
Thank you for all organizational matters that were settled in a very short time and for all the lovely conversations in the seminar room.
Barbara Schulten – Our Lab Angel
Thank you for the incredible support you have given us throughout the entire year. No matter what we needed, within a short time it was there. But most of all we thank you for every shared laugh together.
Ghizlan Bousejra
Our "new Barbara" - thanks for at least 1000 bottles of media you made for us while still laughing with us. You were also our counterpart for personal problems and listened to us when we needed someone to talk to and we are very grateful for that.
Katharina Lufen
For the technical know-how, the organization in the lab in case we wanted to block almost every lab device at once, and for unlocking our lab countless of times, when we did not have the keys in the morning yet again.
Felix Roth
Thanks for the patience and the expertise in all technical matters.
Dr. Murali Dama
Thank you for all your expertise and always asking us if you are disturbing a meeting, when you want coffee.
Dr. Balakumaran Chandrasekar
For all the help and protocols for our yeast cloning.
Dr. Merve Seven
For every expertise and sharing giggles at lunch.
Dr. Vicente Ramirez Garcia
Thanks for the expertise in sugar detection measurements. No matter when, you always helped us immediately.
Fabian Stritt
Thanks for the patience, the primer orders and the help in the daily lab routine.
Tim Niedzwetzki
For all the microscopy, your advice and every conversation during the break.
Dr. Danny Ducat
Thank you for taking the time to meet with us in person and for answering all our questions. Your input right at the beginning of our project helped us avoid certain errors in advance and optimized planned experiments.
Dr. Spencer R. Scott
Thank you for the Skype meeting and the personal assessment of our project part and for the help that optimized our evaluations.
Dr. Pamela Silver
For helping us with our cyanobacteria questions and directly sending your strain.
Dr. Shraddah Shitut
We thank you for giving us priceless advice, outlooks and even further possibilities for our second approach “Auxotrophy”.
