Thomas is our Financial Leader, responsible for the health of our association's bank account. His worst fear? Declare a late allergy to rum. Always motivated for experiments and for team building moments, we owe him our first successful PCR.
No allergies
Raphaël is the Dry Lab Leader of the team. He loves to eat and taste everything and no allergy can stop him from doing so. In desperate times, he comforts us by sharing memes to make us smile. His new passion is fluid mechanics. He’s a bit rough and very frank but we love him for that too!
No allergies
As a good Wet Lab Leader, Guillaume is responsible for all our failures, so he is often stressed. Despite this, he makes a point of looking good in all circumstances and combs his hair ten times a day. He is very good at experiments, but we tell him as little as possible, otherwise he would become too confident.
No allergies
Samy is the Entrepreneurship Leader and we owe the idea of our project to him. In fact, this is normal because he is allergic to almost everything. He is always full of ideas and very optimistic. He seems very shy, but when you know him he can make some very funny dark humor jokes.
Too many allergies to be countable

Morgane is the Wiki Leader of the team. But don't get me wrong, she does much more than wiki. Her superpower is to learn anything in a very short time, from code to video editing to 3D animations. She also holds the record for the most PCR performed in one internship.
Chocolate, mint, sulfites (so a lot of cosmetics), too many fruits to be enumerated.
Daisy is our mascot! She is a biology student and a cheerleader who is far from foolish, always ready to encourage us when we need motivation.
