The Institute of Systems and Synthetic Biology (iSSB):

iSSB is located on the Genopole® in Evry, host team in the summer. The iSSB is a laboratory at the University of Evry and CNRS, supported by Genopole®. It is a multidisciplinary environment or collaborate physicists, chemists, computer scientists and biologists. It is also the laboratory who founded and directs the Master 2 Systems Biology Synthetic and MSSB. This master of avant-garde, unique in France, offers courses provided by researchers at the forefront of their field, which guaranteed training in the state of the art techniques used in synthetic biology.

Master 2, mSSB, Evry university

I did my bachelor in Edinburgh university, and came into contact with synthetic biology when I participated in the 2010 Edinburgh team. My background is mostly molecular microbiology and biotechnology, but during iGEM I came into contact with modelling and how it could serve biology, thanks to the great modellers in our team. I decided to participate in mSSB in order to learn some more about modelling and programming so I could work more closely with computer people later :)

5th year, Sup'Biotech Paris

I’m currently studying my final year in Sup'Biotech Paris, a school of biotechnology, and my professional aim is to work on the processes of bioproduction. I’m attracted, since I was young, by all the possibilities of the DNA manipulation and discovered the synthetic biology with the first synthetic bacteria. Why did I join iGEM? It's a chance to participate in a challenging and concrete project.

4th year, Sup'Biotech Paris

I'm in my fourth year at Sup'Biotech, an engeenering school in biotechnologies. Like many others, I was stopped by the controversy surrounding the publication of Craig Venter and his synthetic bacterium "Synthia". Since, I am very interested to advances in this field and the iGEM competition is a chance for me to be part of this new science.

3th year,Ecole Centrale Paris

After completing a master in engineering at École Centrale Paris and a research master in applyied mathematics for biology, I am to start a PhD thesis on real-time control of biological systems with micro-fluidics chips. Ever since interested in the relation between maths and biology, I discovered synthetic biology in 2011 through its relation to systems biology and immediately got "infected". My expertise being mostly on theoretical aspects, I enrolled in iGEM to get closer to the wetlab and apply my scholar knowledge to real life problems.

2th year, Telecom Sud Paris

As last year of my engineering school Telecom SudParis, I will be doing the mSSB (master in systematic and synthetic biology). I've got some computer science and maths skills useful for modeling and making the wiki. I imagine that mixing technologies and life science can lead to exciting inventions and discoveries. The iGEM seemed to me a nice opportunity to get to know the synthetic biology background and interact with students that are interested in it!

Instructors

Photo Alfonso.jpeg
Dr. Alfonso Jaramillo Contact

Group leader of the Synth-Bio team at iSSB

After a PhD in theoretical physics, he was converted to synthetic biology for over 10 years. He gained international recognition in this field. He is now the team director of the Bio-Synth iSSB, working on the design, synthesis and characterization of biological regulatory artificial pathways. He is also one of the main teachers of the mSSB (synthetic and systematic biology master). Alfonso Jaramillo will be our main supervisor. He led Valencia iGEM team in 2006, and participated in the supervision of Valencia's and Paris' teams.

Thomas Landrain Contact

PhD candidate in Jaramillo's Group at iSSB

Ex-student of the Ecole Normale Superieure de Paris, he is now a PhD student at iSSB in Alfonso Jaramillo's Group where he is developing new technologies, using the properties of RNA molecules, for analyzing and controlling cell fate in bacteria. He is also the co-founder and president of the first community lab for biotechnology in France "La Paillasse", affiliated with the DIYbio world movement. In 2007, he was one of the founder and participants of the first french iGEM team that became finalist of the competition and received the first prize for foundational research.

Dr. Andrew Tolonen Contact

Group leader at Genoscope

After a PhD in genetics and genomics of cyanobacteria at MIT and a post-doc in the team of George Church at Harvard, one of the largest synthetic biology laboratories in the world, he is now a researcher at Genoscope in Evry. His work focuses on the manufacture of biofuels by cyanobacteria. Andrew Tolonen attends the our team in the selection and construction of the project. He participated in the supervision of Harvard iGEM teams during his post-PhD.
