About Our Team
It all started when two wandering friends heard about the epic quest of iGEM, immediately they knew they want to embark on this adventure. A band of 12 undergrad-adventurers from 10 different disciplines was then assembled for this pioneering quest. Against all odds they managed to learn about iGEM and introduce it to the Uni. Along with public, recruit the instructors, raise the funds create the project and get to the finals! In some encounters it is hinted that they even had fun! We are the first team from Ben Gurion University and the only Israeli team to participate this year. To get to know us personally, move your mouse over the picture above!
