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.
" Gabby" says he "I'm going to give this place high majestic mountains, purple glens, soaring eagles, streams laden with salmon, golden fields of barley from which a whisky coloured nectar can be made, green, lush, spectacular golf courses, coal in the ground, oil under the sea,...gas".
" Hold up! Hold up!" Interjected the bold Gabriel " Are you not being too generous to these Scots ? "
Back came the Almighty's reply : " Not really, wait until you see the neighbours I'm giving them !!!

Cyrille

Cyrille Pauthenier

PhD Student in Jean-Loup Faulon's group, iSSB, École Normale Supérieure alumni

Cyrille 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

Tristan Cerisy

Master 2 Systems and Synthetic Biology, Université d'Evry

PhD 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! Now I am beginning a PhD in environmental systems biology to study the degradation of cellulose and hemicellulose by Clostridium phytofermentans in the French Sequencing center under the supervsion of Andrew Tolonen .

Instructors

Alfonso

Dr. Alfonso Jaramillo

Group leader of the Synth-Bio team at iSSB
Contact

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.

Andrew

Dr. Andrew Tolonen

Group leader Tolonen group at Genoscope
Contact

After a PhD in genetics and genomics of cyanobacteria at MIT and a post-doc in the team of George Church at Harvard, one of the largest synthetic biology laboratories in the world, he is now a researcher at Genoscope in Evry. His work focuses on the manufacture of biofuels by cyanobacteria. Andrew Tolonen attends the our team in the selection and construction of the project. He participated in the supervision of Harvard iGEM teams during his post-PhD.

nicolas

Dr. Nicolas Pollet

Group leader of the Metamorphosis team at iSSB
Contact

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.
