As meeting chair, I was responsible for creating the meeting agendas and chairing the meetings. I also worked on the background research for the secretion project and did work for the killswitch project. In general, I took part in brainstorming for the main project, and educational outreach. I worked on Merchandise and social media output. In addition, I worked a lot on the wetlab and aided with acquisition. I performed most of the general lab maintenance and the InterLab study. Lastly I aided with the wiki writing and the educational outreach activities.

I helped with the background research and brainstorming ideas for the nanobody design, and was responsible for using AI methodologies for modeling purposes. I was also the co-creative designer for the final Wiki of the team, and assisted in the wet lab on occasion.

I assisted in the project idea brainstorming, and researching the impact of avian flu on the Netherlands, as well as a bit of research on kill switch. As the team's treasurer: I kept an overview of the income and expenses. As the team secretary: I kept track of the mails coming in and coming out. I also helped with sponsorships, developed team shirts (with Nastia) and possible other merchandise (shirts). In addition, I was responsible for the educational outreach, creating the ‘Escape the Classroom’ and other educational material. I also assisted in the wet lab and contributed to wiki writing. On top of all this, I was the driving force behind our Tiktoks :)

I was involved in the wet Lab, education, project idea brainstorming, and background research for the killswitch. I also did work on the designs of the killswitch, and helped with the partnership with Wagenigen.

I worked as a Vice-Chair in the meetings; helped with the project ideas brainstorming and background research for Nanobody design. I was in charge of the initial planning for social media strategy and platforms; and later oversaw and designed merchandise (socks, caps, etc.) and finding of suppliers. I was in charge of the overview, and organizing of writing and design of the wiki; as well as the coding for the modeling sub-project. I was in charge of the organization and oversight of educational outreach; writing of scripts and storyboards for promotional videos; Spokesperson in team videos and presentations; Occasional assist in the Wet Lab.

I was responsible for the (integrated) human practices, the survey, and the corresponding wiki pieces. I worked on the background research behind the killswitch and general project idea brainstorming. I am also planning and organizing the microbiome analysis side-project. Besides that I also assist in the wetlab. Lastly, I am involved in the writing of various other wiki pieces.

I was involved in the project idea brainstorming and background research regarding choice of nanobody, nanobody secretion, and modeling approaches. I was also in charge of all wet lab activities concerning molecular cloning, protein production and purification, and experimentation. I also oversaw the modeling sub-project, mainly from the structural biology aspect. In addition, I was responsible for most of the data analysis of our results. I assisted in troubleshooting for the lung microbiome analysis sub-project, assisted in setting up acquisition for our project, and assisted in educational outreach. Lastly, I assisted in budgeting regarding lab materials and contributed to wiki writing.

I was one of the lab managers, and also heavily involved in project idea brainstorming. I am the lead designer of all DNA related sections, nanobody secretion design, Killswitch design, Cloning strategy design, and functioned as the Wageningen partnership lead. On top of that I also assisted in educational outreach, and assisted in other wet lab activities.

I was involved in the project idea brainstorming, and monitored communication on social media. On top of that I was involved in sponsorship, assisted in the wet lab and helped in educational outreach. I also wrote some wiki pieces.

I have been involved in project idea brainstorming, researching the impact of our project ideas, and I was responsible for leading and organizing sponsorships and grants. Besides that I worked on human practices with a special focus on conducting the interviews. I also worked on the lung microbiome analysis, organizing educational outreach, writing for the wiki, uploading the parts, and assisting wet lab work and budgeting.
