Hi ! I'm Lucile, a post-graduate student in Biotechnology. I discovered IGEM through my studies. I applied because I am passionated about biology and I love challenges. When I am not filling test tubes in a lab, I either work for a gaming association for which I am the supreme leader, or I cuddle my cute baby dog. IGEM is a great adventure, and I am glad to be part of it. | Hi ! I'm Lucile, a post-graduate student in Biotechnology. I discovered IGEM through my studies.

I study Biological Engineering at Polytech Marseille. As a fun-loving and adventurous type, I love to get out and about, to explore the natural world surrounding us and travel to far-away places. I feel very close with the team I spent my summer with, and I hope they loved working (and playing!) with me as much as I loved working with them. I decided to push forwards and do the IGEM competition because it allowed me to get multidisciplinary experience and discover other aspects of science, while enabling me to learn how to coordinate properly with other lab-crews and giving me the opportunity to support the whole project in english. | I study Biological Engineering at Polytech Marseille.

When I first heard about the iGEM, I thought it was such a pity this competition didn’t exist when I was an undergrad student, as it is a unique opportunity to have biologists, chemists and computer scientists working together. Now, as an assistant professor in Biochemistry at Aix-Marseille University, I’m excited to be on the “instructor side” of the team. My research interests focus on bacterial adaptation to the environment and on pathogenicity. I hope my experience of bench work will help our team to realize its ambitious project and to develop a durable iGEM spirit in Marseille !!! | When I first heard about the iGEM, I thought it was such a pity this competition didn’t exist when I was an undergrad student, as it is a unique opportunity to have biologists, chemists and computer scientists working together.

Camille Garcia alias California Mountain Snake
Hi ! I'm student in Biochemistry and Biophysics. What I love about this field is to explore complex mechanisms of molecular machines. iGEM competition appeared to me as an opportunity to build a scientific project, it's also a great social experience. Apart from that, I'm a recovering memes addict and I love cartoons, ponies and cartoon with ponies.
Louis Villard alias Ghost snake
Computer scientist.The boy who leaded the team.
Thibault Bongiovanni alias Anaconda
I am a third year student in Biochemistry and Biopharmaceutic Chemistry, I wanted to be a part of the iGEM competition to combine innovation and biology. During the summer, I mainly worked on the phage and its characterization. I really enjoy the way we can mix science, teamwork, communication and management.
Lucile Dupré alias Cottonmouth
Hi ! I'm Lucile, a post-graduate student in Biotechnology. I discovered IGEM through my studies. I applied because I am passionated about biology and I love challenges. When I am not filling test tubes in a lab, I either work for a gaming association for which I am the supreme leader, or I cuddle my cute baby dog. IGEM is a great adventure, and I am glad to be part of it.

Lisa Frugoli alias Tiger snake
Hi ! I’m Lisa, I’m an undergraduate student in biotechnology and I’m glad to participate to this international competition. I decided to join it because I’m passionate about applied biology. I especially like the concept of BioBricks. Also,to be part of a team is a great experience that I recommend to every student !

Soraya El Hamdaoui alias Panther snake
Biochemist.The girl who worked in wetlab.
Jeremy Cartalas alias Death adder
The boy who worked in wetlab and financements.
Sophie Laporte alias Black Mamba
I study Biological Engineering at Polytech Marseille. As a fun-loving and adventurous type, I love to get out and about, to explore the natural world surrounding us and travel to far-away places. I feel very close with the team I spent my summer with, and I hope they loved working (and playing!) with me as much as I loved working with them. I decided to push forwards and do the IGEM competition because it allowed me to get multidisciplinary experience and discover other aspects of science, while enabling me to learn how to coordinate properly with other lab-crews and giving me the opportunity to support the whole project in english.
Marie Salomon-Mallet alias Spectacled Cobra
The girl who worked on wetlab.
Robin Mera alias Fluffy Taipan
I study Pharmacy and Research in Marseille. My sweetness and my sense of humor make me likeable, as my Kill Bill nickname suggests. My friends love teasing me and so do I. I am passionate about sport and travels and I’d like to work abroad in the future. I have been very implied in the iGEM competition from the beginning since it represents for me a real opportunity to develop various skills in a different context from what I am used to.

Hey hey, i'm Marty, a student in bioinformatics to become a data-analyst/manager. I'm happy to be part of the IGEM competition because that's a awesome adventure and i learned many things about me, teamworks all members of this year and the realization of a project for this compétition and the future of the project. Since four years i wanted to participate to this competition and now great Scott i'm here!! Indeed we want to begin a strat-up about Kill Xyl. I dream of space conquest and i like watching science-fiction movies and of course i am a geek!!

Hi, I'm Marcel. I am a Ph.D student working on photosynthetic complexes. I am very keen on doing science since a very young age, with a particular interest in biology and also physics. Then, making a Ph.D was a logic and natural path. I discovered the iGEM competition through my supervisor, and it's a very enthralling and very enlightening event for me, and I'm glad to be a part of it !

Hi, I'm an Associate Professor of Genomics and Molecular Microbiology in Marseille. I was delighted to join the team this year. I was very happy to discover Synbio and to share my bench experience. It was great to see how students can be motivated by science.

Hi! I'm the Spiny-Headed Sea snake, one of the AMU iGEM team instructors, ready to Kill Xyl! It was a real pleasure to manage this project from the depth of the wet-lab. Currently pHD student working on the horizontal transfer, I studied synthetic biology when I was engineer and I am so glad that a challenge like the iGEM exists! It was a so great to meet others teams during the First iGEM Mediterranean Meet-Up and I’m eager to see more at the Giant Jamboree!

James Sturgis alias Snake charmer
Professor of Biochemistry and director of a CNRS laboratory in Marseille, my research centers on using biochemical and biophysical methods to understand membrane protein structure, function and interactions. I recently created a synthetic biology course at the university and so was very keen to help our team turn theory into practice by participating in the iGEM.

When I first heard about the iGEM, I thought it was such a pity this competition didn’t exist when I was an undergrad student, as it is a unique opportunity to have biologists, chemists and computer scientists working together. Now, as an assistant professor in Biochemistry at Aix-Marseille University, I’m excited to be on the “instructor side” of the team. My research interests focus on bacterial adaptation to the environment and on pathogenicity. I hope my experience of bench work will help our team to realize its ambitious project and to develop a durable iGEM spirit in Marseille !!!
