Team:Bordeaux/Attributions

Sleep with EpiC elegans

Working together makes you better

This year, iGEM Bordeaux is a great team with big dreams. Composed by 22 students, we all work together in order to success our iGEM adventure. We were not alone and many people helped us to accomplish our goals.
It is like a recipe, we need many ingredients to make a good meal. iGEM Bordeaux represents the french gastronomy, because we worked together through the year and everyone contributed by doing specific works. We divided the group and each one had a special task but there were some teammates who were involved in different fields of the project.

Let's go to discover our multidisciplinary team !

The Laboratory

iGEM Bordeaux presents:
European Institute of Chemistry and Biochemistry

First, we want to thank the European Institute of Chemistry and Biology for hosting us all the year for our internships and meetings.

During the internship, our team had to use several machines which not belong to our lab. That’s why we had to collaborate many times with the neighbor labs. Thank you to:

  • Florian Bernard, the alumni of Denis Dupuy team, who supported our first days of the internship
  • Axel Innis's group, for lending us their spectrophometer and their NanoDrop instruments
  • Jean-Louis Mergny’s group for lending us their spectrophometer and their NanoDrop instruments
  • Natacha Perebaskine from Axel Innis’ group, for the safety formation
  • Myriam Mederic for her hard work and encouragement
  • Sabrina Rousseau, researcher engineer, for her advices during all the internship
  • Martin Teichmann, researcher, who helped a lot for the EpiCRISPR part by giving many advices on our several strategies
