Vorstand

Meet Jan, our Head of Steering, leveraging three years of volunteer experience for a comprehensive understanding of the German SynBio landscape. Jan envisions GASB as the key platform to unite Academia, Industry, and Politics, establishing SynBio’s prominence. Concurrently, Jan is pursuing a Ph.D. in cell-free and bottom-up SynBio at TU Munich. Feel free to reach out & join us in elevating Synthetic Biology with GASB!

Carolina Elizondo

Carolina Elizondo

stellvertretender Vorstand

Carolina is the current Vice-Head of Steering at GASB. She is doing her PhD at Heidelberg University on the phenotypic heterogeneity of B. subtilis biofilms and spores. Even though not working directly with SynBio, she believes it is a key discipline to solve many of our society’s problems. Reason why she joined GASB at the end of 2022, where she has worked in the Collaborations Associations team, to promote SynBio together with other Associations not only in Germany, but all around the world.

Christian Rauch

Christian Rauch

Beauftragter für Recht und Datensicherheit

Christian Rauch promoviert derzeit am Zentrum für Synthetische Mikrobiologie in Marburg, wo er sich mit Metabolic Engineering in Bakterien beschäftigt. Bevor er Anfang 2022 zu GASB kam, war er in anderen Verbänden für Wissenschaftskommunikation aktiv. Als Beauftragter für Recht und Datensicherheit hat er ein Auge auf mögliche rechtliche Hindernisse für GASB-Projekte und arbeitet daran, eventuell auftretende Probleme zu umgehen, bevor sie zu Problemen werden.

AKTIVE MITGLIEDER 

Ob durch die Organisation der nächsten Konferenz, einer Podiumsdiskussion oder die Umsetzung eigener Projektideen - die aktiven Mitglieder der GASB hinterlassen ihre Spuren auf dem Weg zur Etablierung einer SynBio-Community in Deutschland. In Zusammenarbeit mit kleinen interdisziplinären Teams unterstützen unsere aktiven Mitglieder uns bei der Realisierung unserer Veranstaltungen und Projekte. Wollen Sie sich einbringen oder sind Sie einfach nur neugierig, welche Möglichkeiten sich Ihnen bieten? Werden Sie aktiv!
