Advisors
William RostainPhD Student in Alfonso Jaramillo's group, iSSB
In the beginning when god was creating the world, he was sitting on a cloud, telling his pal the Arch Angel Gabriel what he planned for Scotland. |
Cyrille PauthenierPhD Student in Jean-Loup Faulon's group, iSSB, École Normale Supérieure alumniCyrille participated the iGEM competition twice, in 2011 with Paris Bettencourt's team (Nanotube's project, semi-final finalist) and 2012 Evry team (French froggies project, Best Model and Best Human Practice in the semi-final) in which he helped founding with William Rostain and Tristan Cerisy. Chemist by training and alumni of the École Normale Supérieure he is currently doing a PhD thesis in metabolic engineering on yeast at Jean-Loup Faulon's group, in the institute of System and Synthetic Biology in France. |
Tristan CerisyMaster SSB (2012), Université d'EvryPhD student, Genoscope, Université d'Evry After my bachelor in Bioinformatics, I did the Master Systems and Synthetic Biology at the University of Evry. During the master, William and I decided to create the iGEM Evry team in November 2011, quickly joined by Cyrille. One year after the iGEM Evry team (with 15 people) got 2 prices in Amsterdam (Best Model and Best Human Practices Advance) and was qualified for the final in Boston! Now I am beginning a PhD in environmental systems biology. I study the degradation of cellulose and hemicellulose by Clostridium phytofermentans in the French Sequencing Center under the supervision of Andrew Tolonen. |

Instructors
Dr. Alfonso JaramilloGroup leader of the Synth-Bio team at iSSBContact After a PhD in theoretical physics, he was converted to synthetic biology for over 10 years. He gained international recognition in this field. He is now the team director of the Bio-Synth iSSB, working on the design, synthesis and characterization of biological regulatory artificial pathways. He is also one of the main teachers of the mSSB (synthetic and systematic biology master). Alfonso Jaramillo will be our main supervisor. He led Valencia iGEM team in 2006, and participated in the supervision of Valencia' and Paris' teams. |
Dr. Andrew TolonenGroup leader Tolonen group at GenoscopeContact Andy has a PhD in microbial genomics from MIT and did his post-doc in George Church's at Harvard, one of the largest synthetic biology laboratories in the world. He is now a researcher at Genoscope in Evry where he studies how microbes interact with their environment to influence global carbon cycling. Andrew Tolonen assists the team in the design and implementation of the project. |
Dr. Nicolas PolletGroup leader of the Metamorphosis team at iSSBContact After a PhD in developmental physiology at INSERM, he was a Marie Curie post-doctoral fellow at the German Cancer Research Institute in Heidelberg. He is now a CNRS senior scientist, head of the Metamorphosys group at iSSB working in genomics and systems biology using the Xenopus frog model. Nicolas Pollet will participate to IGEM as Evry team supervisor for the second time this year. |
