I am a fifth year student in Biochemistry and Biotechnologies at INSA Lyon. I discovered the iGEM competition in 2013 while I was providing support for the European Jamboree organization. Instantaneously, I was attracted by the scientific aspects of the concept as well as the human ones. Thus, I joined the 2016 iGEM team in order to learn how to elaborate a project from the subject's definition to the experiences and the presentation of the results. During the summer, I specifically worked on fluorescence revelation, streptavidin part design and characterization, cloning experiments and final parts characterization tests. During my leisure time, I love traveling and practicing sports like dance.

I am a fifth year student in Biochemistry and Biotechnologies at INSA Lyon and in Bioinformatics at the University Claude Bernard Lyon 1. Since I heard about synthetic biology and all its possibilities, I wanted to take part in a project from scratch and build a complete system. That’s why I joined the iGEM team INSA Lyon 2016 in order to realize this ambition. During this summer, I worked on the molecular modelling of the 3D structures of our different aptamers and on the homology modelling of our protein of interest.

4th year student in biosciences, and now ported on bio-informatics and mathematical modelling, I have heard about the iGEM several times last years and always wanted to join a team. This year, I tried ! I am glad to help the team making real discoveries after a modelling work and numerical calculations. The tool we built to compute the most probable aptamer structures was one of the first great bio-informatics project I contributed to. This iGEM contest experience was therefore a good training exercise of teamwork and software development.

I am a fifth year student in the department of Biochemistry and Biotechnologies at INSA Lyon. I am a person who enjoys challenges and a place in my university iGEM team fits me. Having to build a project from scratch motivated me and indeed, in the end this project turned out to be a very enriching experience. Apart working on molecular cloning, I was also able to use my passion for visual arts in the benefit on the project. I worked on the molecular animation and I was also in charge with the Communication and Publicity.

I am a fourth year student in Biochemistry and Biotechnologies at INSA Lyon. Since I discovered it, I am a real synthetic biology enthusiast and naturally joined this year iGEM team. Working as a team, building and participating in this project was really fulfilling and enriching. Moreover I am really interested in the human aspect of our project and the improvement it can bring to our society, so I took part in the human practices in addition to the InterLab study.

INSA

Student in fourth year in Biochemistry and Biotechnologies at INSA Lyon, I am very interested in working as a team and in carrying out a project from the beginning to the end. I especially appreciate the way we can mix both sciences and humanities in one project. Consequently, I worked on the Human practices and I took part in the achievement of the InterLab study.

INSA Instructor Handyman

PhD in environmental and analytical chemistry. And now Associate professor at the Institut National des Sciences Appliquées de Lyon, i’m working in the MAP laboratory (Microbiology, Adaptation and Pathogenesis lab) in a new team AME (Adaptation to Extreme Environments, created in 2016). Since 2012 I’m trying to do my best to help the iGEM-ers of INSA Lyon team to go as far as possible in their project :)

Valérie DESJARDIN

INSA

Associate professor at the Institut National des Sciences Appliquées de Lyon My research work at the Laboratory of Civil engineering and Environmental engineering (LGCIE) is currently aimed at the study of biophysicochemical interactions of pollutants in various compounds (soils, sediments, municipal solid waste) using molecular biology tools. I am very excited to take part in the iGEM project which leads to the development of a synergy, already launched, between the Biosciences department and Environmental sciences.

INSA Instructor Human Practice

PhD in Political Science ("Gaston Berger, les sciences humaines et les sciences de l'ingénieur, un projet de réforme de la société", Université Lumière Lyon 2, December 2013). I'm presently a Research engineer at Institut Gaston Berger (INSA Lyon), I study how politics, culture, and ethics of engineer shape science and technology. My teaching interests are interdisciplinary in the field of science and technology studies.
