Team introduction
Hello everyone ! We are glad to attend to the 2019 iGEM competition as the Orléans team. We are a group of Master's degree students from the University of Orleans that decided to join the iGEM adventure. For all of us, it's a brand new experience. It was tough to implement it in our university, but we had a lot of support from everyone and we don't regret it ! We had a lot of fun and carry-out a whole scientific project on our own was a verry fulfilling experience.

about me : My name is Alexandre Rutault and I'm currently doing my last Master's degree year in molecular and cellular biology. I'm one of the funder members and I'm an active member of the scientific team. I'm particularly interested in physiology and pathology and I could adapt my cellular culture knowledge to bacterial culture. Besides sciences, I love music and climbing.
fun fact : When I was preparing the heavy metal solution, I was feeling like Darth Vador with my gloves and mask. *loud breathing noise* ...Cupriavidus...I'm your father !

about me : My name is Thibault. I’m in the second year of a Master’s degree in Biotechniligies, Molecular and Cellular Biology at the university of Orleans interested in bioinformatics. I’ts may first participation to iGEM competition. I’ve been expecially contributed to the projet design and the wiki developpement.
fun fact : During the paintball we made at the end of hollidays with the team, i though i could do without my glasses. My forehead met a pretty metal bar. I eventually changed my mind.

about me : I’m Raphaël, I were studying in the first year of a Master degree in molecular and cellular biology at the University of Orléans. Attending to this first year of iGEM competition was a true pleasure. I especially participated to the creation of the association and, to a lesser extent, to the lab experiments during this summer.
fun fact : During the paintball, I was hidden in the bank and Quentin guessed it without any clue.

about me : I have been an associate Professor of Biochemistry at University of Orléans since 10 years, mostly working on using Carbohydrate Active Enzymes (CaZYmes) as biocatalysts in chemoenzymatic synthesis. I enjoyed working with Metal’Ose IGEM group, and was impressed by their involvement spirit to lead this project, even during troubled times… As my colleague Arnaud pointed out, thanks again for the delicious putrid smells cultures in our lab. Always a pleasure !

about me : I am a lecturer in molecular biology at the University of’Orléans. I teach to undergraduate, and first year master degree students in the areas of biotechnologies and plant virology. Also, as a researcher at the LBLGC, I work on a signaling pathway associated to drougth in poplar. It’s all about studying at the molecular level osmosensor type receptor in order to be able to copmrehend the perception of drougth in plants and thus to enhance plant toloerance to this environmental stress.

about me : I am lecturer in biochemistry and molecular biology at the University of Orléans. In addition, as a researcher at the LBLGC, I am involved in studies aimed at revegetating sites contaminated by heavy metals (mining sites). To do this, we use amendments that promote the growth of selected plants and also affect the bioavailability of pollutants. My work focuses in particular on the molecular responses developed by different plant species to metal stress.

about me : Hello everyone. I’m Arnaud technician in biochemistry. I am working in the laboratory where the team was doing their experiments. I am very glad to be part of the iGEM competition because I think it is a great adventure for future researchers. I learned a lot about your teamwork and especially about your unlimited involvement in your research theme. Thanks to you for these small smells diffused in our offices, these smells diffuses in the air delighted our olfactory systems! For my part, I dream of space conquest and above all read science fiction!
