Mr Paul McDonald |
Paul is a PhD student financed by MOAC (Molecular Organisation and Assembly in Cells) Doctoral Training Centre, University of Warwick, interested in developing proof of concepts for phage therapeutics. Originally trained as a Mathematician, his research interests now lie in include phage genome engineering and receptor binding proteins. | University of Warwick |

 Dr Rui Rodrigues |
Rui is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Jaramillo lab in the University of Warwick with responsibilities in the design and implementation of the EVOPROG hardware and software. His mixed background in Bioinformatics and experimental Synthetic Biology are useful in informing development of components towards a general applicability fluidics engine. He is interested in rapid prototyping, protocol automation and in studying evolutionary potential in directed evolution. | University of Warwick |

Dr Manish Kushwaha |
Manish Manish is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Warwick Integrative Synthetic Biology Centre (WISB), funded by EPSRC-BBSRC, working at the interface of experimental and computational biology. His research interests include improving the design-to-specification of synthetic biological systems for more predictable engineering, expanding the cross-species compatibility of genetic systems, and implementing complex decision making in cellular consortia- for metabolic, therapeutic and environmental applications. He has previously used computational biophysical modelling of synthetic genetic networks for cross-species compatibility in bacteria. Prior to that, his research was focussed on understanding mechanisms of gene regulation, where he studied chromatin remodelling in trypanosomes and computational prediction of pre-microRNAs. | University of Warwick |

Alfonso holds a PhD in Particle Physics (1999) and a Habilitation in Biology (2007). After postdoctoral appointments with Prof. Wodak (ULB Brussels, 1999-2002) and Prof. Karplus (ULP France and Harvard USA, 2002-2003), he started in 2003 as Assistant Professor at the Ecole Polytechnique (France), becoming tenured in 2005. There, he further developed computational synthetic biology. In 2009, after moving to Genopole (France) as CNRS-senior researcher, he started his experimental synthetic biology lab, utilizing directed evolution, microscopy, microfluidics and 3D printing. In 2013, he opened a second lab at the University of Warwick (UK), where he holds the Chair of Synthetic Biology. Alfonso has previously been the coordinator of the FP6 NEST Pathfinder BiomodularH2 comsortium and scientific coordinator of the FP7 FET Proactive BACTOCOM consortium. He has also participated as partner in 9 EU grants. | and Institute of Systems and Synthetic Biology |
