My friends may call me Luiso, Lucho and I gave myself the nickname of Lucha when I opened my twitter account back in 2008.
Why are you doing iGEM?
I find iGEM to be an amazing opportunity to learn about synbio (subject I’m fascinated about) but also about so many other things in life, like: working in a team, working as a team, organisation, creativity… and in addition to this, getting to share this experience with thousand of other students from around the world in Boston is what made me do iGEM this summer :)

Message to future iGEMers?
When it comes to choosing a project don’t be afraid of thinking of very innovative ideas but also ideas that can have a significant impact and that can be as universal and modulable as possible. Foundational projects are very much needed in this baby stage of Synbio.
