Our Members

Claire RAYNAUD

My staff nicknames are Clairounette or the lab machine depending of the day mood. Perhaps their inspiration came from a remnant of my youth in the Medoc countryside (may it reminds you some wines and red noses..) what has shaped me tough and an occasionally cheeky girl. If I am not on the lab, you can find me in the calanques enjoying the roof of Marseille or travelling somewhere around the world. Though nature is my big hang-up, heaps of bacterial issues have pushed me to make a Microbiology master degree...However, my best friend is definitely my badminton raquet. I walk it everywhere around Marseille thus i don't forget I am going to empty my iGEM pressure soon!

Louis GIVELET

Hi! I’m Louis, nicknamed Loulou among the team. I’m fond of molecular biology, biochemistry, microbiology, cellular biology, genetics…uh…well all biology stuff in fact. I was always convinced that the living is the best source of inspiration we could ever find to solve our current issues. So when I heard about the iGEM competition during my first year of master’s degree I just couldn’t wait to go for it! Among team I’m described as the severe one even if during summer I overwhelmed all my teammates with my specialty, silly jokes…

Yoann SANTIN

Despite the fact I am from Corsica, I do not sleep a lot… Why? Because I am too busy to sharpen my knives in order to eat saucisson ! I recently started my second year of Master degree in Microbiology at Aix-Marseille Université and I hope to begin my PhD at the end of the year. My interest in synthetic biology arises from is it’s vast range of applications to solve real world problems and it was an amazing opportunity to be involved in iGEM within the Aix-Marseille team as I worked with people from different backgrounds. Outside the laboratory, I maintain my military past (you now understand my haircut…) making hiking and bushcraft with my best friends. Even I am sure it is wrong… people in the lab say I speak a lot, so hang on !

Tangui MESSINA

Hi there! I am Tangui. I was in my 1st year of master degree in Plant biology, Microbiology and Biotechnology at the beginning of this adventure. After a long hesitation last year, I have decided to throw myself into the competition. All experiences acquired during this intership in a lab to defend our own project was one of the best experiences in my student life. It allows me to improve my skills and it has given birth to a great friendship with the laboratory team. So I just have to say: Do not hesitate and just do it.

CEM KARAKUS

Hi I'm Cem, I'm currently doing a biology bachelor which is called "physiology and neurosiences". I've been an EEDF member for 6 years now ( a french secular scouting movement). I'm 1m93 tall when I stand and the same when I lay I believe. Why am I participating to IGEM 2016? Because I'm fond of science. My participation as a AMU member hasn't been huge actually, I was mostly taking care of the human practices and of video footage, I would have loved participate to the lab manipulation though

Marie-Alice MINASSIAN

Hey, I’m Marie-Alice, a second year cell biology student and the youngest of the team. This year I decided to participate in iGEM to expand my knowledge of the scientific world. During our project my main responsibilities were the cloning of our biobricks at the lab and engaging with the public at large in the scope of our Human Practices program. However, I also helped with HPLC tests, sponsoring documents and writing texts in the wiki. Overall iGEM was one of the most enriching experiences of my life and I am thankful that I had the chance to be a part of this amazing project

Our Advisors

Nin Sebastien

Hi, I'm Sébastien. I'm currently in first year of master of bioinformatics, structural biochemistry and genomic. I did iGEM last year and it was a very rewarding experience. This year, I had sadly not enough time to participate in the lab, but I helped with the wiki design and the collaborations.
