| Emmanuel Tsikritsakis – Senior Technician |

Emmanuel Graduated from the University of NSW Australia with a B.Science Degree and majors in Pharmacology, genetics, Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Medical Microbiology, Immunology and Cell biology. He decided to take a multidisciplinary approach to seeking answers and integrating knowledge from a vast variety of disciplines: "The most important aspect of my university study was to integrate the knowledge of as many related fields and their respective leaders as possible" There was no price to great to pay; even the knowledge that his degree would not allow him for more than 3 majors did not affect his decision. A decision which ultimately saw him with seven major areas of specialization to choose from when it came time for him to nominate his majors.
He has worked in a variety of different labs ranging from pharmacology to biotechnology and immunology, and is looking at completing a PhD in the area of "stem cell regenerative medicine and technologies" within the next five years.......
