We are all students at the University of Sherbrooke located in the province of Quebec in Canada. However, only a few of us actually grown up there.
+
Our team is located at the University of Sherbrooke, in the province of Québec in Canada, and formed of students and instructors from various fields of expertise: electrical engineering, software engineering, molecular biology and microbiology. The multidisciplinary nature of our team has allowed us to create a complete laboratory automation platform comprising hardware, software, and wetware.
−
Our team is composed of people native from a lot of different region in the province. Although this little divergence, we certainly are all interested in one common thing: Robotics. We naturally built a friendship during the three first years of our degree and when Professor Sébastien Rodrigue proposed his project to us for our final year project, we decided that it would be an awesome challenge for us.

The students taking part in this team are attending their final year of college. However, only a few of those are actually born and raised from Sherbrooke and its surroundings.
 +
The team members originate from different regions and demographics throughout the province. The diverse and varied minds and ways of working from everyone came together as a whole as every member weighed in with their contribution, to achieve a shared vision on what the robotic platform should be.
 +
The team's representatives are all interestsed in common subjects such as biology, engineering and robotics. The iGEM competition is seen as a great and interestsing challenge.

Our team

Our team is located at the University of Sherbrooke, in the province of Québec in Canada, and formed of students and instructors from various fields of expertise: electrical engineering, software engineering, molecular biology and microbiology. The multidisciplinary nature of our team has allowed us to create a complete laboratory automation platform comprising hardware, software, and wetware.

The students taking part in this team are attending their final year of college. However, only a few of those are actually born and raised from Sherbrooke and its surroundings. The team members originate from different regions and demographics throughout the province. The diverse and varied minds and ways of working from everyone came together as a whole as every member weighed in with their contribution, to achieve a shared vision on what the robotic platform should be. The team's representatives are all interestsed in common subjects such as biology, engineering and robotics. The iGEM competition is seen as a great and interestsing challenge.
