iGEM rocks so badly, when you do it once, you just wanna do it again :)

But this year, I'm keeping a low profile, just helping out the newbies to settle in and feel comfy in the lab. I'm still enjoying working around bacteria, apart from B. subtilis producing lysostaphin, because it smells so badly you just wanna die when you happen to be working in the same room!

I also like playing volleyball, cooking, baking, eating and above all traveling and meeting new people ^^ See y'all at the Jamboree!

I am a third-year student in Biochemistry and Biotechnology at INSA Lyon and taking part in iGEM for the first time. I am joining the iGEM team to have a first sight of what genetics and bacterial manipulation is and to step into something different from studies.
I like sports, skiing and computer graphics and hope to make it to Boston.

This year, I’m back for another iGEM competition. I’m still at INSA Lyon, fourth-year biochemistry and biotechnology, and still interested in how we can regulate parts to make them work together. However this time I’m rather advising on the project with the intent to improve our weak points (who said modelling ?), and making sure the newcomers don’t make (too many) mistakes.
Otherwise I play video games. A lot. Too much...

I am an undergraduate student in Biochemistry and Biotechnology at INSA de Lyon. This year, I participate for the first time in iGEM. I am very confident that INSA Lyon team is going to win because the team members worked very hard on the project and they all are skillful. I am passionate by biosciences.
Outside the school I like watching movies and traveling whenever I have time.

It is my first participation in the INSA-Lyon team. In my previous studies, I worked on two projects about bioremediation and production of vanillin using biotechnology. So being part of the iGEM team is really important to continue learning how to manage bacteria and working in a student team.
I am fond of dance, photography and art in general. I live in a town where the international short film festival takes place : Clermont-Ferrand and one of my favorite is “la révolution des crabes”

When you participate in iGEM once, you just want to take part in this great adventure again !

In my fourth year of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, I’m still enjoying microbiology, modifying bacteria and creating new plasmids! I’m this time on the advisor side... Helping the new team members searching for sponsors and guiding them for experiments in the lab.

In my free time, I like dancing, playing the piano and traveling !

I am a third-year student in Biochemistry and Biotechnologies at INSA Lyon. I am taking part in the iGEM competition for the first time. This project is a good way for me to improve my organization skills, ingenuity and dynamism which will be very useful for the future.
Outside of school, I enjoy cooking, playing handball and mainly traveling whenever possible! So I believe on the talent of my team to discover Amsterdam and of course Boston!

I am also known as the Clumsy one. Hell, I am the kind of guy who managed to cut my finger trying to open a bottle of beer and for the record, I was actually using a bottle-opener. My clumsiness is even contagious : Gaël and Yoann also cut their finger during the summer.
Anyway, I am also a third-year bioengineering student who love music (especially hard rock !), good food (though I am skinny and absolutely don't know why) and traveling. I may be a bit of a nerd too as I am a videogames fanatic.

Also known as the Red Squirrel because I used to climb up on trees and hide in narrow cupboards to make jokes to my friends. I am a third-year bioengineer. I am joining the IGEM team after a first experience in molecular biology to improve my knowledge and discover the synthetic biology approach.
Outside of iGEM, I am interested in rock dance, cooking, traveling, and above all that literature.

Also known as the Guanaco, I am a third-year biochemist at INSA Lyon. I am from Chile, specifically from the northern limit of Western Patagonia.
I got into the iGEM project because I think that it’s an unique experience and an excellent opportunity to learn more about bacterial manipulation and synthetic biology.
Apart from microbiology, I like reading, playing rugby, bicycle touring, and everything that involves nature and outdoor activities. You will find in me a knight-errant.

This is my second participation in the iGEM competition with the INSA Lyon team. In fourth year in Bioinformatics and Modeling, I’m helping this year the team in the modelling part from Scotland, where I am in academic exchange.

I am a third-year Biochemistry student. I decided to join the Lyon team because I believe that the iGEM competition is a challenging experience that will put myself to the test.
Apart from synthetic biology, I like dancing, star-gazing and reading while listening to music (the older, the better).

I am an undergraduate student in biochemistry and biotechnologies at INSA Lyon. This is my first participation in an iGEM team. I consider this as an opportunity not only to acquire specific qualifications very useful for the future, but also to participate in the construction of an attractive project from scratch.
Besides my interest in biosciences, I am into sports like basket-ball or volley-ball, reading and cinema. I hope my "blondness" won't be an obstacle to the realization of this project.

I have a bachelor's degree in Sciences and I am now studying Biochemistry and Biotechnologies. This is my first participation in the iGEM competition. I love new challenges and iGEM is an amazing opportunity to manage together my passion for biology and building a project : a scientific adventure.
I love sports and making cookies for my lovely team !
