MEMBERS

ADVISOR & GRADUATE STUDENT

DR. GERNOT PRESTING

Dr. Presting is the primary faculty advisor of the Hawaii iGEM team this year. He has previously mentored the Hawaii iGEM team in 2008 on their work with a cyanobacteria toolkit. Dr. Presting's expertise in bioinformatics, plant genome evolution, and centromeres has provided crucial guidance to the team on project design, research methods, and laboratory techniques.

RYAN SHONTELL

Ryan is a first year master's student in the Cell and Molecular Biology program at the John A. Burns School of Medicine. Ryan's research focuses are on the commercial applications of retrotransposons and in health disparities in cancer among the Native Hawaiian Population. He is currently conducting thesis research with Dr. Gernot Presting studying the integrase of a centromere-specific retrotransposon and directed research with Dr. Lenora Loo investigating the biological differences in ER+ breast cancers in the Native Hawaiian population that leads to poorer survival outcomes.
