Benoit Sorre is a CNRS researcher who joined the team in January 2014. He did a PhD at Curie Institute in Biophysics and a Postdoc at Rockefeller (NY, USA) working on how TGF-beta signaling respond to time varying stimulation. He is now developing a project on Synthetic Embriology and the physics of Stem Cell differentiation in collaboration with Jérome Collignon from Institut Jacques Monod.

Fabien is a postdoctoral researcher interested in molecular evolution and systems biology. In his past research, he studied the evolution of a robust developmental system in Caenorhabditis elegans and he described how mutation and selection both contributed to natural variation in the expression of a yeast metabolic gene. Fabien is now using single cell approaches such as microfluidics and time-lapse microscopy to understand how cell growth is regulated under periodic osmotic stress. He is also implementing optogenetic tools in yeast to control the activity of signaling pathways through light modulation.

Raphael is a third year PhD student. He is working on the design of a connected and modular ant nest, to study ant behavior. We want to adress question on the possibilities of interaction and control of a living society by a computer assisted feedback loop acting on the nest structure and properties.

After an engineer degree in signal processing, I switched to bioengineering and biophysics right after my participation to the 2011 iGEM competition. My project aims at using microfluidics, microscopy, control theory and molecular biology to achieve real-time and long term control of gene expression and growth in bacteria.

I come from Croatia where I studied Molecular Biology at the University of Zagreb. Later on I spent a semester at Uppsala University in Sweden where I studied Microbial and Evolutionary Genetics. Currently I am in Paris in second year of Interdisciplinary Approaches to Life Science master specializing in Systems and Synthetic Biology. I will continue with the PhD studies in Pascal Hersen's lab in the Laboratory for Matter and Complex Systems exploring the self-organization of yeast cells from a single-cell to a multicellular community. My main scientific interests are Systems and Synthetic Biology, Evolutionary Dynamics, and Genetics.
His work was related to the real time control of gene expression and to systems biology at the single cell level, which is taking into account natural non-genetic variability among cells. This project mixed microfluidics, synthetic biology and modeling in a systems biology approach. Artémis background was applyied maths for Biology (MSc UPMC) and engineering (Ecole Centrale Paris). He is now working for a Parisian Startup.

I am a master student in the second year of the master AIV at Paris Descartes and computer science at TU Munich. After a bachelor degree in applied mathematics with special interest to the biological domain in Munich, I spent one year in Paris at Université Diderot. My interests vary from neurobiology, behavioural studies to the modelling of gene expression. My current project now aims at complementing this theoretical work with some practical experience in a wetlab.
