THE TEAM
IGEM AIX-MARSEILLE 2020
HERROU Camille
Hi everyone! I’m a first-year student in a microbiology master who just graduated in cellular biology last year. I love biology for some years now, that’s why, when I heard about the iGEM competition I immediately wanted to participate. So, I’m so proud to say that I participate to this wonderful adventure with the Aix-Marseille iGEM 2020 team. I loved this journey for scientific aspect but also for the human experience and something I didn’t think about at the beginning which was to combine my two passions, biology and art. Indeed, I also love art, especially drawing. And through projects, like logos designing or the art exhibition organised by iGEM Nantes team, I was glad to mix art and biology. In this project I was also implicated in the recruitment of new members, then I was in charge of our facebook page.

PREEL Jeanne
Hi, I am in the 3rd year of my Bachelor of Life Sciences degree in Biochemistry. I embarked on the project following a facebook post! I think it is a very enriching experience, we are setting up a project from A to Z, we take on a lot of responsibilities, what better to evolve? This year has taught me a lot, both in terms of people and knowledge. The covid prevented us from seeing each other and sharing moments together as a team but we helped each other and we became united in the face of this difficulty.

JACQUES-VUARAMBON Lucy
Hello everyone ! I'm 22 and I am currently in my second year of a master’s degree in Biotechnology at Aix-Marseille University. I heard about the iGEM competition when I was a sophomore student, but I never had the chance to participate until this year. This project allowed me to use my theoretical knowledge developed during my studies in a much more concrete and applied context. Moreover, I learned to work with people who were not necessarily of the same level or field as me, which was very enriching!

JAYET Laurie
Hello everyone, I’m 22 years old and a first-year student in a Immunobiology master who just graduated in cellular biology last year. I discovered iGEM through a subject last year, this aspect of biology interested me and that's why this year I joined the team. In this project I was also implicated in the recruitment of new members, then I was in charge of the motion design video and collaborative francophone video.

CARIEN Samuel
Hi ! My name is Samuel and I’m a student in master of microbiology. I have many artistic, athletic and scientific hobbies, and I'm glad to have contributed to this ambitions project within my team of iGEM Aix-Marseille. During this years we have done the most as possible to solves the green tides problem which touch so many people with a synthetic biology soluce. It was an exciting adventure that learn me a lot about bio-engineering technics and i'm very proud that we have reached it to the end all together.

MIOT Maud
Hi ! I am a student at Aix-Marseille University where I’m starting my second year of a master's degree in Microbial Engineering and Biotechnology. This competition is a real opportunity to develop skills that will be very useful to me in my professional life. Synthetic biology and metabolic engineering for the development of new applications are fields that fascinate me and which I want to make my job. That's why I volunteered to be president this year. It’s a real opportunity to acquire an entrepreneurial spirit and work on projects as a team. It was a very socially rewarding personal experience allowing us to interact with students and researcher from all over the world.

MESKINI Younes
Hi, I’m Younes Meskini, a second year bachelor degree in Biology with the objective to become researcher in the vegetal biology field of study. I decided to join the IGEM competition out of curiosity and willingness to discover more about the way science can be used to answer modern problems and be a part of that answer.

GIRAUD Julien
Julien Giraud: Hi everyone! My name is Julien Giraud, I’m 21 years old, I’m in my 2nd year of Bachelor’s degree in Life Sciences at the Faculty of Sciences of Aix-Marseille. After starting to study Medicine, I decided to study biology. I have other passions in life than biology, like Art or classical music. I discovered IGEM during an internship, where I met the wonderful team of IGEM Aix-Marseille (Wetlab) 2019 working on a screening test for tuberculosis. It made me want to take part in a rare human and enriching adventure. I hope you will enjoy our project. See you soon! ;)

NIN Sebastien
Hi everyone, I’m Sébastien. I’m an engineer in bioinformatics. I’m taking part in the iGEM competition for the fourth time this year in the Aix-Marseille team. It’s an exciting adventure both scientifically and humanly. The iGEM projects are very different each year. The fact that we meet people who have lived the same adventure is just awesome!

DESJARDINS Jonas
Hi, I am from Normandy (a rainy but lovely region in France), I moved to Marseille for engineering school where I picked up and interest in microbiology. I decided to purse a biology degree and joined the 2019 IGEM “Aix Marseille Université” team. This year, I come back as an advisor to help the new team with all the thing we have to do.

EL MOUAYED Yorgo
Greetings everyone! My name is Yorgo EL MOUBAYED, I am 22 years old. I am majoring in bioinformatics (MSc) at Aix-Marseille University. I fell in love with the iGEM competition back in 2018 where I started as a member in the Aix-Marseille team for the Breaking bugs project. Now I am an advisor and giving out my best for the 2020 team. That iGEM vibe is all I want; I just can't get enough.

PRIMA Valérie
Hi! I've been working as an engineer at the LISM laboratory in Marseille for 19 years. I'm studying the photosystem of purple bacteria, using molecular biology, biochemistry and biophysic techniques. Each year, I'm very proud to participate in the iGEM competition as an advisor. First because I love sharing my knowledge and second because I think it's a unique adventure.

MEDJOUEL Hakim
I participated in iGEM two years ago with the gold medal winning Breaking Bugs project. I have always liked the challenge and the realization of scientific projects. So I wanted to participate this year by sharing my experience with the new 2020 team and help them to get a gold medal as an advisor.

INSTRUCTORS
STURGIS James
Hello! I am a professor of Biochemistry and director of the LISM Laboratory in Marseille. My research centers on using biochemical and biophysical methods to understand membrane proteins structures, functions and interactions. I recently created a synthetic biology course at Aix-Marseille University. Thus it was very keen to help our team turn theory into practice for iGEM. For the seventh time this year, I am managing the Aix-Marseille iGEM team.

VIALA Julie
I'm an associate professor at Aix-Marseille University. My time is split between research activity and quite a bit of teaching, in microbiology, biochemistry, molecular biology and synthetic biology. This last discipline is exciting to me as it feels like you might build whatever you want, the only limiting things is ideas! I am therefore happy to support the Aix-Marseille team in this adventure.

HOUOT Laetitia
I’m an associate professor at Aix-Marseille University. I share my time between teaching biochemistry and working at the LISM Laboratory. My research centers on tiny, tiny stuff (bacteria, phages, protein complexes, gene regulations…) and how it all works together as magnificent machines. Synthetic Biology is the perfect field to study and design biological functions! I’m enthusiastic about sharing my benchwork experience with the Aix-Marseille team and to help in this amazing adventure.
