The amazing team!!

This year Pr Lejeune, head of department and professor of microbiology, had floated the idea of the participation at the IGEM competition. Then a group of students from third, fourth and fifth years (us !!) motivated themselves and wanted to be part of the iGEM adventure.

Why we like iGEM competition :

1. The international aspect : this is an international competition and moreover some of our teammates are abroad for a semester in exchange. Then we run the project from different parts of the globe. There is also Antonio, a spanish guy in internship in Lyon who wanted to be part of our project
2. the meeting with other international students: We want to meet new people with a mutual interest for synthetic biology, but we want also discover all their other interests and create contacts all around the world. We want also share our ideas and way of living.
3. the research project in synthetic biology: a way to materialize our courses and continue to learn by a different way than books.
4. the melting of the idea: how to run a project an go on with the ideas of the of the team members and realize them.
5. the team atmosphere: We didn’t know each others very well before this adventure and we are, now, a real team with a strong cohesion, ready to share discoveries and works and even more fun...

The IGEM competition is an event which correspond to the INSA international logic. It's an occasion to push for the INSA through the world and mostly to meet a lot of other schools and students who share a same subject of predilection.
It was also an occasion for us to really have a mix between students of several years around a same work. In fact the human experience begin before the jamboree because of the group work and will continue at the jamboree in November.
We didn't all work in Lyon because a small part of the group begin an exchange semester in September in different foreigner university. A Spanish student from Barcelona also joined the team, while he was in an internship this summer at Lyon.
