Marion Sevin Slim, brunette with mysterious eyes is looking for you, passionate male… You will enjoy my bewitching voice, while I am telling you the story of modeling and bioinformatics. I love men that whisper equations in my ears. That is so romantic! We could have great moments together. I love listening rock music, travelling around the world, seeing my friends and eating lasagnas!

Yacine Kabeche

Young man with dark eyes is looking for a woman with whom he will build not a weak link like hydrogen but a strong link like disulfide bridge! I want us to be as compatible as guanine and cytosine are. To me a relationship is a question of symbiosis. Contact me, it will worth it!

Charlène Valadon

Hi guy! I’m a Parisian 22 girl, who love watching TV and playing video games. I’m a biologist above all but also a good cooker. If you’re not scary about some bacteria in your pancakes, or to be with a kind of Hobbit (for the tall, not the beard) you can be my soulmate. Text me and maybe we could conjugate some good times, transform our lives. Ps: I’m a little bit crazy too…

Caroline Correia

Hi handsome! I'm a student in neuroscience master, I’m looking for a strong and successful man to go deep into my brain. I’m craving for a real man able to overwhelm me with dopamine. Short girl with Portuguese roots I want to find someone who can dance all night long on the rhythm of the sun. Passionate by traveling, we might walk together throughout the world and end up at the Caribbean.




















Mahnaz Sabeti Azad

Beautiful Top Model sized Iranian Lady, I've won a lot of beauty prizes all around the world. Passionate about microbiology I will be soon a PhD student. Crazy driver, I'm looking for a fearless man who will not be afraid to take a ride with me! Come to my lab and I will show you how I can handle my plates!

Naiane R. Rios

I’m a sweet Latina girl, still adjusting to my French life. I love the feeling of the sun on my soft skin, hot tropical nights and long walks in Montmartre. On my everyday life, I’m a badass biologist. I’d like a guy hot like a stove and steady like the touch of a pipette. An artist able to draw on petri dishes, recite me romantic poems all night long, and more if we hit it off!

Marin Brenac

Perfect male for all female around the world, I love Law and LawL! If you share the same passion for play with words you're my girl, because I'm looking for someone who can explain me the weird biology jokes made by my team.

Claire Schaffhauser

Hi you! Do you wanna go for a ride? I'm a strong, beautiful, funny law student girl, living in the IP/IT world. Life in patent law, it's fantastic! If you are a tea lover as well maybe we can go to party together and have so much fun!

Victor Billon Life is too busy at the moment between ENS and the Institut Pasteur, so I'd like to meet someone who shares my passion for hikes and outdoor photo shootings during weekends on the most unexpected places. People always think I'm too serious at first, but if you stick around you'll see I'm actually a teddy bear.

Mathilde Falieres

I ain’t gonna lie, I’m kinda perfect. People often call me lab’ queen 'cause I’m a bacteria whisperer. As a biologist student, I’m lookin’ for a healthy relationship: up to date vaccinations for smallpox and polio is mandatory, influenza vaccine would be a plus. If your final aim is also to create Pokémon, you should definitely message me. Maybe we could take over the world together. Come make crazy science with me ;)

Etienne Kukielczynski

I'm a young physicist, passionated about aviation and ready to commit with a gal able to bring some adrenaline into my life. My head and dreams may be in the clouds but from there I can also reach for the end of the rainbow. Instead of gold I could gain your love, as the final prize.

Gaëtan Cousin Hey everyone, I’m Gaetan! I’m a nice French guy, and a good looking IT student (yes, it does exist!). You‘ll enjoy my love for challenges. I’m looking for a girl who will find cute things like “don’t blink challenge”! If you want to become THE girl, you won’t mind about me having my daily dose of video games. I’ll take you into one of my famous train trips through Europe, and I can ensure you that you won’t regret it!

Alice L'Huillier

Hey you! I’m a sweet girl and I love doing biology and play around with my pipette. If you are a boy and love new experiences, beware, because I like to heat it up, just like a PCR. Come to my lab, there are so many things to discover!

Terrence Tran

Hey chicks! I’m a good looking, good cooker , clever and rich Asian guy, just looking for a girl ready to bear my perfections! If this doesn’t work, I could use magic tricks to seduce you , but be careful, I won’t show you all the cards at the beginning! Watch out lady, because if you are not nice you may taste a handmade mayonnaise with a very special modified bacterium of mine!

Léa Talbot

I'm a small town girl who loves bunnies, walks on the beach and a pipettor which ejects firmly their tips. Now I'm living in Paris and looking for a partner hot 'n steamy like an autoclave. A guy who'd love to set up an overnight with me and won't complain about streaking plates on weekends. You need to do a lot more than dissolving LB on the microwave. I want a real man who can wash his own lab coat.

Laetitia Perrin

Hey you! I'll soon be a student in 3rd year of Science and technologies, specializing in Bio-engineering. In fact, I love Biology: Playing with little yeasts, bacteria and eating them! Yes, I like baking (and eating!) and i'd like a guy to share my love of sweet yeast and bake special mutant cake for him.

Carla Faria

Next year I'll start my Master in Biology & Health and I have the ambition to build a career in oncology research. Designer, drawer, communicator, scientist: those are the skills that I used for iGEM this year. Biology is my first love but Art is my second and now I'm looking for the third! I'm always ready to do new discoveries! I'm optimistic and I keep smiling all the time. I'm always ready to party and enjoy life!

Coline Sivelle

I'm a tall brunette born and raised in the French Alpes so when I say I'm looking for adventure it's high level adrenaline adventure. Someone as wild and sweet as me, a combination difficult to find, I must say. I'm starting a PhD soon so not a lot of time for serious commitment. If you think you're up for the challenge, contact me and we can go to my lab and I can show you how we can grow something together.

Maxence Pfeiffer

Hey there! Maxence is talking to you! I am a very friendly soon graduated biology engineer, and I am looking for a girl who’d follow me in every parties! Of course, I have a few requirements. She’ll have to enjoy a glass of good alsacian white wine with a piece of "tarte flambée", and not be jealous of my many friends! I hope you’ll find cute the way I disguise myself for costume parties. I’m also ready to share my love for travelling with you!

Instructors

Fabio Maschi

I'm a shy kind of guy who loves programming, so no one believes me when I tell them I'm brazilian. I like spending holidays at the beach but what I really love is to travel, so wherever you invite me I'll go. I say to people I came to France to study but the truth is I came to find love. I'm still looking for it though. If you enjoy having a quiet weekend playing LOL, drinking wine or traveling somewhere wild, we should definitely meet.

Claire Baudier

I LOVE sciences, especially maths and biology. That’s why I started my PhD two years ago. But, you know, sometimes I feel a bit down when bacteria resist me. So I’m looking for a PhD partner who would like to help me bringing up lovely Bacillus Subtilis. It needs a lot of love and care but is a wonderful companion and I am sure it will grow way beyond all expectations. And when Baci is happy, how can’t I be?














Marie Rouquette

Hi I'm Marie! I'm an engineer who is now doing a PhD in chemistry and biology. I'm working on nano particules and I'm looking for someone who shares my interest for very small things (size does not matter!). So if you're in, let's meet and see if there's chemistry...

Sylvie Lautru

Hello you! I’m Sylvie and if you want to know my age you have to guess it. I’m in charge of my lab, so you don’t have to be afraid about authoritarian and hardworking woman. I’m looking for a real man and if you want I could explain you the bases of Biology. I accept candidatures of any age as long as you don’t need a cane.

Philippe Bouloc

Olivier Namy

Hey ladies! A very gallant handsome man is waiting to take you for a long walk on the beach! In my everyday life, I’m the head of a laboratory. I very much appreciate to be called “chief”, but when it comes to love, I’m as faithful as a polymerase. You might not understand all the stuff I will tell you about translation, but I’m OK with this. If you ever have problems with Snapgene, I’m your guy!
