We want to send all our love to our sponsors and thank them for the support they provided us. Our whole project would not have been possible without them.

Here is the list of our partners, who they are and what they offered us. A big THANK YOU to all!


Paris-Saclay University

School BMP

8,000€

T--Paris Saclay--LogoSaclay2.jpg


The Paris-Saclay University is structured in several « schools » which are in charge of organizing education on a specific scientific field. Every School is in direct link with one or several research department from the university. The Biology Medecine Pharmacy (BMP) school coordinates 4 masters from different institutes of the Paris-Saclay University:

  • Paris-Sud University
  • ENS de Cachan
  • Ecole Polytechnique
  • Versailles-Saint-Quentin University
  • Evry Val d'Essonne University
Its strength relies on the impressive amount of laboratories implicated in this training. Their financial support is a blessing for our team!


FSDIE

7,100€

T--Paris Saclay--LogoUPSUD.png


A small percentage of the university tuition fees goes each year to the [http://www.u-psud.fr/en/index.html Fond de Solidarité et de Développement des Initiatives Etudiantes] (Fund for Solidarity and Development of Student Initiatives, FSDIE), whose goal is to help students realise projects (regarding science, sport, solidarity, etc). Students should present an application form which is examined by a jury composed of student representatives and teachers.

They are several criteria of evaluation:

  • the number of students implicated in the project
  • the philanthropic aspect of the project
  • the educative aspect of the project. What enrichment will the project provide to the participating students?
  • The reputation and what it can bring to the university
We worked hard so our presence in Boston participates to our university renown!


I2BC

4,000€, material donation and experiment facilities

T--Paris Saclay--LogoI2BC.jpg


The [http://www.i2bc.paris-saclay.fr/?lang=en Institute of Integrative Biology of the Cell] is a lab supported by both Université Paris-Sud, the CNRS and the CEA. The institute includes 80 teams of scientists and 15 facilities from 8 research units. It is located in 3 different research campus (Orsay in the Paris-Sud University, Gif-Sur-Yvette in the CNRS, Saclay campus in the CEA). Our supervisors are from this institute. The institute offered us funding and the welcome opportunity to perform our experiments in their buildings. No experimentation would have been possible without their tremendous help!


Institut Villebon Georges Charpak

1,850€ and material donation

T--Paris Saclay--institutvillebon.png


The [http://www.villebon-charpak.fr/ Villebon Georges Charpak Institute] aims to form undergraduates students to science and technologies with very innovative educative approaches. Two of our iGEM members follow this course and had the opportunity to come to Boston thanks to the substantial help of the Institute.


Magistère of Biology

700€

T--Paris Saclay--LogoMagistere.png


The Magistère of Biology is a diploma which can be obtained in France after 3 years of study. Courses are delivered by teachers from public (CNRS, INRA, University) and private (Research & Development) company as well as managers from the bio-industry, and cover various aspect of biology (science but also marketing, communication, journalism…). This year, 6 of our team members follow this training.
