This year, curious and imaginative students from the department of biology, computer science, physics and chemistry, mathematics and mechanical engineering came together to form the third generation of the team of iGEM Paris-Saclay.

Students

Arnaud Motz

I am a Bioinformatics and Biostatistics graduate student at the University of Paris-Sud. I participate in iGEM 2014 to open myself to the world of synthetic biology, to explore new frontiers and to participate in an incredible human adventure. “The tone of dogmatism is inspired by profound ignorance.” Jean de La Bruyère

Ndiaye Eugene

I am in Master 1 of Fundamental Mathematics and applications. “These are not applications that make the beauty of mathematics, but mathematics beautify applications.” Jacques Tits

Fabio Maschi

Third year of license in Systems and Information Technology. I decided to participate of iGEM because I'm enthusiastic to work in a multi-domain project and meet many people from all over the world. "The greater our knowledge increases the more our ignorance unfolds." John F. Kennedy

Juliette Chevallier

I'm a mathematics graduate student and I've decided to commit to the iGEM as a challenge. “We fear some madmen's intelligence. ” Dominique Blondeau

Laëtitia Doukhan

Hi ! I'm a biology student in my third year of Health-Biology studies at the University Paris-Sud. I'm very interested in biotechnologies and how they can influence our lifes and the society, I'm here to discover the amazing iGEM world and to met new people from different horizons.

Laura Belot

Biology (3rd year undergraduate) Not only I’d say the scientific background but also the design and accomplishment/achievement of our project, that will arise from everyone’s ideas. Our team’s multidisciplinary dimension makes that experience even more interesting humanly speaking

Maher Ben Khaled

I am an undergraduate student in my last year of Biology-Health, and first year of Magisterial of Biology and Biotechnology at University Paris-Sud 11. I participate in his project for all it can bring me: group work, take initiatives and carry out a project.

Marie Nguyen

Hi! I am 22 years old and I am in my last year of Biology and Health. I want to discover what synthetic biology is and I am really interested on ethical issues. iGEM is a great opportunity to meet students from all around the world and to confront our point of view.

Mathias Vétillard

I am student in the third year of biology in the faculty of Orsay. I am 23 years old and I am fascinated by biology since I'm young. I love groups projects because they really allow me to bloom. That is why I chose to join iGEM. "Progress is the injustice each generation commits with regard to its predecessors."

Mathieu Bousquet

This is my first year of iGEM and I am a student in third year of biology degree. I also learned general lab practices in a team working on DNA repair when I was intern. I came for iGEM because of the student driven research aspect. It’s a great opportunity to improve my skills and to share my interests in biology. “The science of today is the technology of tomorrow.” Edward Teller

Méghane Sittewelle

I am L3 biology-health (3rd year undergraduate) and first year of the Magisterium of biology and biotechnology at the University Paris-Sud. “An unsolved problem is ill-posed problem.” Albert Einstein

Pierre Roux

Hi! I am a first year master student in mathematics. I take part in iGEM because i love all kind of science, and iGEM is a great opportunity to do some biology! "If i have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants. ” Isaac Newton

Raphaël de Saint-Exupéry

I study mechanical engineering (1st year undergraduate) . For me, IGEM is a great experience in biology which is not my area of expertise. This is a very interesting field and it can be linked to mechanical engineering for working on a complete project.

Remi Franco

I am in postgraduates studies in chemistry and fisrst year of the Magisterium of Molecular Physico-Chemistry at the University Paris-Sud. "The Scientist must set in order. Science is built up with facts, as a house is with stones. But a collection of facts is no more a science than a heap of stones is a house." Henry Poincaré.
