Sydnee Calhoun

As a long-time fan of Winnie the Pooh and my stuffed animal collection, I was drawn to the idea that CRISPR could be used to make new creatures! And maybe even living versions of some of my favourite stuffed animals like a teddy bear (as real bears are dangerous and not safely huggable). After some deliberation I came to the realization that CRISPR designed teddy bears might not be the most logical of goals in life, but all the research I had done toward it spurred my interest in synthetic biology and eventual life-long dedicated commitment to iGEM.

After several years of being a part of both the high school and collegiate teams, I am happily back for another year of enjoyable torture


Kristi Turton

Hello, my name is Kristi and this is my second year with the Lethbridge Collegiate iGEM team and my first year as an advisor for the High School iGEM team. I am currently studying Biochemistry at the University of Lethbridge and hope to continue in graduate studies.

If you can't find me in the lab, you can find me playing music at home or bingeing YouTube videos.


Student Members

Keith Aiken

This is my third year of iGEM. I'll soon graduate with a B.Sc and B.Ed in December, 2018. I'm very happy to be part of the iGEM experience because it incorporates so many people with various talents who all have wonderful levels of ambition and passion. This year, my role has been mostly in a New Media capacity, including building the Wiki and creating graphics.

Travis Haight

My name is Travis Haight, and this is my first year with the Lethbridge Collegiate IGEM team. I grew up in Calgary AB, and I am in the fourth year of my Chemistry undergraduate degree.

I joined IGEM because it seemed like an excellent complement to the work I do in an RNA based research lab, and to meet and work with others that share a passion for science.

Catrione Lee

Hi, my name is Catrione and I am a 4th year undergrad biology student. This will be my first year in iGEM and I’m extremely excited to be a part of synthetic biology.

I hope to one day be a microbiologist/immunologist and being involved in a project that could directly impact the technology in those fields is something that I’m really looking forward to.

Lucas Saville

My name is Luke Saville and I am from Calgary, AB. I have just completed my second year as a biochemistry major at the University of Lethbridge. I also do RNA based research at the University of Lethbridge.

I joined iGEM because it seems like a good way to be surrounded by cutting edge science that is constantly growing.

Team Advisors

Aubrey Demchuk

I am currently a Ph.D. candidate in Neuroscience but I have an academic background in Molecular Genetics, which definitely helped shape me into the SynBio nerd that I am today.

I am a returning iGEMer because I really enjoy working on challenging interdisciplinary projects that bridge my research interests (and because I apparently cannot abide spare time)! And if I am not in the lab, you can find me on my mountain bike!
