Background

Andreas received his BA(Hons) and MEng degrees in 2014 from the University of Cambridge (Trinity College) in Electrical and Information Sciences (Engineering Tripos). As an undergraduate he received the G-Research and The Technology Partnership (TTP) Awards, as well as a Gold medal (2nd place in Europe) and the 'Best Experimental Measurement Approach Award', representing the university at the International Genetically Engineered Machines Competition (iGEM). He is currently a Ph.D. candidate, focusing in applying control theory in biological systems, particularly at the molecular level.
