Meet the Team: Andrew Harrison

Hello! My name is Andrew and I am studying a Bachelor of Biomedical Science and Bachelor of Science, with a Major in Computational Science. I joined iGEM because as a Type 1 Diabetic I essentially owe my life to Synthetic Biology, and I couldn't pass on the opportunity to contribute back to the field in an environment that provides invaluable experience working with like-minded people.

"What hobbies do you have outside of academics?"

Recently, my friends and I have really gotten into rock climbing, especially Bouldering which we go to a couple times a week. I also enjoy barracking for my favourite Magpies every weekend at the footy. When I have spare time, I try to fit in running or playing guitar.

Why are there so many job listings for microbiologists?

Staph shortages.
