Supervisors

Professor of Molecular Systems Biology, PhD, Head of Laboratory. He is our major sponsor and mentor, lets us use his lab, facilities, equipment, materials in the Institute of Technology of University of Tartu and work under supervision of specialists in the field. All of this huge help inspires us to do all the possible and impossible projects and experiments.

Senior research fellow in Molecular Biology, PhD, Programme director of Science & Technology and Bioengineering. She encouraged our team, managed every part of the team’s work, solved project and team related issues, and guided the whole project.

PhD student, helped with planning the project, organising public events, carrying out successful experiments, academic writing for article and wiki pages.

Experts who provided our team with valuable advice and feedback

Director of a pharmaceutical corporation "Izida Farmi" in Tbilisi, Georgia. Mrs. Modebadze confirmed that our strategy is eligible and provided us with a more complete list of lipid products. She advised us to get even more information regarding the product necessity from pharmaceutical companies potentially interested in our project idea..

The Founding Director of Center of Biomass Materials and Nanointerfaces (BMI) and Professor of Biomass Science and Engineering at Sichuan University, China. Prof. Guo advice was very valuable to ensure our project has a potential implementation, and the feedback considering our model is crucial for the development of our project.

Research Fellow in Material Science, University of Tartu. Dr. Vanetsev gave very useful insights on InP nanoparticle preparation. Without his help, our team would not be able to prepare nanoparticles for our wet-lab experiments

Theoretical Biophysicist in Humboldt University of Berlin. Dr. Hahn provided useful information on how to improve our model.
