Hello!! I'm Minh, and I'm the other co-lead on the website team. You could find me mainly in the basement, though I don't play piano, sew or climb (or code :P). I'm the main reason why the website is late a few times.

Hi! My name is Grace! I am the team lead for the dynamic video crew team. I’m currently a fourth year student studying Biology in the Faculty of Science. I love hiking and enjoying nature. I find beauty not just in the complexities in science but also in the great outdoors. Going on hikes and stargazing is a passion of mine since I cherish moments that nature offers. During my spare time, I tend to paint portraits or sceneries and make music. It’s a blend of my love for the arts and science.

Hi I’m Erica :) I do the social media and events stuff! I also really like Taylor Swift. Hope to see you around!

Hi! I'm Enda and I am a 4th year Biomedical Engineering student at UBC! I have been a part of the wet lab team at BIOMOD since my 2nd year because I was interested in learning more about nanotechnology, molecular biology and wet lab experiments. Being part of a research project fully ran by students is a very exciting and unique experience! In my free time, I like boxing, feeding my caffeine addiction, and watching F1!

Emma is a Biochemistry student whose true passion in life is to discover the scientific formula for the perfect nap. She shows up to BIOMOD meetings running on nothing but sushi, matcha, and a pinch of stardust, but is always ready to help out. In her free time she enjoys reading, drawing, or teaching herself a new musical instrument.

Meet the Dilophosaurus, a carnivorous dinosaur from the Early Jurassic distinguished by its double-crested appearance. Despite its Hollywood portrayal in "Jurassic Park," there's no evidence that Dilophosaurus spat venom. Instead, its crests likely served a display or recognition function. With a lightweight build and long legs, it was likely a fast and agile predator. Dilophosaurus offers a glimpse into the varied forms and functions of crests in dinosaurs, showcasing the complexity of adaptations that evolved throughout the vast timeline of dinosaur existence on our planet.

The Triceratops, a well-known herbivorous dinosaur of the Late Cretaceous, had a unique dental arrangement that set it apart. While it possessed a beak at the front of its mouth for cropping vegetation, the rest of its jaw was filled with numerous teeth arranged in groups called dental batteries. These batteries consisted of up to 800 tightly packed teeth, forming efficient grinding surfaces. This dental adaptation allowed Triceratops to process tough plant material, showcasing the specialized features that evolved in dinosaurs to exploit specific dietary resources during their existence on Earth.

In the Early Cretaceous, the Microraptor, a small, feathered dinosaur, possessed a remarkable ability—it could glide or possibly even fly. This feathered dinosaur had long feathers on its arms and legs, forming wing-like structures. Although not a direct ancestor of birds, Microraptor exemplifies the evolutionary experimentation with flight-related features in non-avian dinosaurs. Its feathered limbs and potential gliding capabilities highlight the diverse paths taken by dinosaurs as they adapted to various ecological niches, contributing to the evolutionary tapestry that eventually led to the emergence of modern birds.

The Parasaurolophus, a herbivorous dinosaur of the Late Cretaceous, featured a distinctive cranial crest—a long, tubular structure extending backward from its skull. Recent studies suggest that this hollow crest acted as a resonating chamber, enabling Parasaurolophus to produce low-frequency sounds. This adaptation likely played a role in communication, helping these dinosaurs convey information or warn of potential threats. The intricate structures found in dinosaur anatomy continue to unravel, providing valuable insights into the behaviors and adaptations that allowed them to thrive in prehistoric environments.

The Ankylosaurus, a heavily armored dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous, sported a remarkable defense mechanism—a tail club composed of fused vertebrae and thick bony knobs. This tail club, resembling a medieval mace, served as a formidable weapon against predators. Ankylosaurus likely swung its tail to deter attackers or assert dominance. This unique adaptation showcases the ingenious ways dinosaurs evolved to thrive in their ecosystems, emphasizing the fascinating diversity of defensive strategies employed by these ancient creatures.

In the Late Cretaceous period, the Spinosaurus, one of the largest carnivorous dinosaurs, inhabited river systems and displayed a unique adaptation: a crocodile-like snout. This adaptation suggests a semi-aquatic lifestyle, with Spinosaurus possibly hunting fish. With an estimated length of up to 50-59 feet (15-18 meters), it surpasses even the Tyrannosaurus rex in size. The discovery of Spinosaurus fossils in North Africa provides insights into the incredible diversity and adaptations of dinosaurs in different environments during prehistoric times.

Hi I'm Tianne, I'm a second year Microbiology and Immunology student. I'm on the website team where I make graphics. Outside of studying, I spend my time reading - my favourite book is The Tenth Muse by Catherine Chung.

Hello, I'm Talia. I am a second year student studying computer science and microbiology and immunology. I am passionate about drug delivery and immunology as well as software development. I joined BIOMOD because I enjoy the teamworking aspect and enjoy experimenting in labs.

Hello! My name is Rosalie Zhou and I am a 2nd year Science student studying Pharmacology. I am a part of the Social Media and Events sub-team and I post updates of our progress as well as share interesting findings by our team with UBC students.

I’m Melanie and I am currently in my third year studying Biomedical Engineering. This will be my second year as a part of UBC Biomod’s wetlab team and I'm excited to continue with this journey!

Did you know that the Stegosaurus, a herbivorous dinosaur from the Late Jurassic period, had a brain the size of a walnut, despite its massive size? Despite its relatively small brain, the Stegosaurus had large plates along its back and four sharp spikes on its tail, likely used for defense against predators. These distinct features make the Stegosaurus a fascinating example of the diverse adaptations that existed among dinosaurs during their reign on Earth.

Hi! My name is Kendrick Cooke and I’m a 4th year Bachelor of Pharmaceutical Sciences student. I have been a part of Biomod since my third year and am acting Project Lead this year! I find new drug delivery technologies very interesting and am passionate about women’s health! Outside of school I really enjoy sports, I play football golf and ultimate frisbee and love being outside.

Hi, I am Miguel and I also one of the co-captains for UBC BIOMOD this year. I am very excited to be leading this team amazing team. It is unknown if I have other interests outside of BIOMOD, I eat, live and breathe BIOMOD. If I could eat my DNA origami , I would. Maybe that is a future BIOMOD project..... Well, I also love playing nintendo games.

Melanie is a second year science student studying Microbiology and Immunology. When she isn't invested in reading up on new advancements in DNA technology and all its applications, she enjoys reading science fiction and writing poetry.

I'm studying biomedical engineering and am very passionate about stem cell research related to immunology and neurology. Studying these subjects always makes me feel curious and intrigued, but also empty-headed sometimes (you can never know enough!). In my free time, I exercise at the gym, run, and learn to do an arm stand. cool fact: an active lifestyle increases life expectancy. In biomod, I love the community of young and passionate scientists we have, trying to solve modern problems in the field of medicine.
