Favourite fruite: Tomato.

Aupervisors & Advisors
Cristina Del Bianco
Nickname: Cri
Description: Cristina is our main supervisor: a spirited cocktail of optimism and energy. She helps us in every occasion and sends us emails at any time of the day, especially at night. After intense days of work she loves to reward us with kilograms of ice-cream and FRUIT- cakes. However, if our bench is not clean and in order, she applies her girl-scout methods and force us to stay in the lab without food and water until it's not shining.
Favorite fruit: Grapes
Sheref Mansy
Nickname: Lo Sceriffo
Description: Sheref grew up in the state of Ohio where he learned the famous art of trolling that he frequently uses with us especially with Thom. He loves Trentino landscapes, in particular the mountain and the fruits' fields. Lo Sceriffo is a perfect supervisor because he shares with us many interesting science news but...to remain faithful with its playful character, he comments them in Ohio slang that leaves us confused in front of the computer. He selected iGEMers only based on their culinar skills.
