Hi! I've been working as an engineer at the LISM laboratory in Marseille for 20 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.

Jonas DESJARDINS
Advisor
Hi, I am from Normandy (a rainy but lovely region in France), I moved to Marseille in 2016. I am in the second year of a Master’s degree in Microbiology. I made my first steps in the IGEM competition in the « Aix Marseille Université » team in 2019. For the second year, I am an advisor and it’s always a pleasure to be part of this competition.
