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 all together in order to success our iGEM adventure. We were not alone and many people help us to accomplish our goals.
It is like a recipe, we need many ingredients to make a good cake. iGEM Bordeaux represents the french gastronomy, because we worked together through the year and every one contribute by doing specific works. We divided the group and every one was in charge of a special work but there was some teammates who was involved in different fileds of the project which is great to be multidisciplinary .

The Laboratory

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:

  • Sabrina B, technician, for her advices during all the internship
  • 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
