Everyone of us
Augusto Furio Balula
Shy or discreet? In the Augusto's silence we observe his qualities: intelligence, solidarity, focus, determination, persistence, and so on. "Augusto Boy" or "Little Augusto" is a master's degree candidate in genetics and he has expertise in molecular
biology of microorganisms.
Bárbara de Abreu Francisco
Barbara is a student of Engineering Physics and worked with the mathematical modeling of our project. She also contributed photographing and recording different team activities, wiki organization and new ideas. She is a beginner to synthetic biology who learns quickly and hopes to participate in its construction in the university.
Beatriz Brambila
Beatriz is a 2nd year student in Biotechnology. She participates in the activities in molecular biology lab. Outside the lab, she has contributed in various other activities. She has contacts with graphic designers that are of great value. Always
works hard and always cheerful. And she looks great dressed as a bacteria.
Célio Dias - CelioPedia or EncycloCelio
He is a very intelligent and funny master student. He operates in the group at the laboratory, but also has great participation in modeling. He greatly helps the graduating students with a foothold for them, and we always have fun with
his jokes.
Daniel Fernando Coletta Silva
Daniel, better known as Cowboy, is an undergraduate student in Biotechnology at Federal University of São Carlos. He works more actively in the laboratorial part, however he is always acting in several areas of our project. If you need
someone to wear a suit and ask for sponsorship in companies and the city hall, he is the guy. Cowboy is a very fun and intelligent man, which is always responsible to amuse our weekly meetings with his unexpected jokes and funny comments.
José Claudio Corsaletti Filho
Who is Zé Claudio? He is a college student of physical Engineering at Federal University of São Carlos and is currently working in the mathematical model of the iGEM project. Zé is a guy who enjoys learning about new things and says it’s
been a rewarding challenge to participate in the synthetic biology project and learn more about that. Moreover… some of his friends say that he’s always busy playing online games when they need him to talk about the news…
Leonardo Delphito
Leonardo Delphito is a 4th year student in Biotechnology. He is working in the molecular biology lab and contributing in organizing documents and protocols. He also collaborates with the graphic part of the work. He has interests in several
areas for example: molecular biology, genetics, bioinformatics, astrobiology and astronomy. But mostly he intends to participate in this revolution called synthetic biology.
Luani Godoy
Luani is a student of the first year of Biotechnology at UFSCar . Participates in the Policy & Practices activities and assists the team in several other parts of the project . Luani famous to be a member to use the bacteria fantasy.
Isabella Takahashi Kitano
Isabella, popularly known as Zaki, studies Biotechnology at UFSCar. Her shyness is not able to hide the greatness of her proactivity at the University and iGEM team. Currently, she works with microorganisms, but in the near future we will see
Dr. Zaki in the lead of research on synthetic biology in plants.
Matheus Pedrino Gonçalves
Matheus Pedrino is a biotechnology student at the Federal University of São Carlos who is always concerned about social issues. He is a very kind person who everyone likes. Some people say he has the most beautiful eyes of Campus.
Vitor Rangel
Vitor is a student of the computing engeneering. In the iGEM, he is responsible for the wiki. He has a lot of ideas and he’s very proactive, besides having much knowledge in the programming area.
Advisor
Daniela Modna
Daniela, also known as Dani, is the technician of teaching laboratories in our department. Actively working for the team, either in tasks in the laboratory or when problems arise. She was also responsible for making our beautiful bacteria costumes.
There is no problem that Dani can not resolve.
Instructors
Flavio Henrique Silva
Professor Flavio Henrique Silva is a nice person and is one of the founders of the Bachelor’s in Biotechnology degree at UFSCar - São Carlos. He is always interested to contribute with the undergraduation degree and its students; it’s
the second time that he is an instructor of a brazilian team in iGEM. His research field is based on molecular biology applied to the control of sugar cane pests and metagenomics of Amazon rivers and lakes looking for genes with biotechnological
applications.
Francis de Morais Franco Nunes
Professor Francis is our main enthusiast. It's striking how a teacher is able to work so close to the students. He never misses an opportunity to remind us that “yes, we can” and that we will be well-succeeded during the competition and in life. Francis always has that innocent face of discovery that fascinates and makes everyone stay fascinated, and he is always willing to learn. In short, he is a gold-standard iGEM Instructor.
Iran Malavazi
Professor Iran Malavazi teaches Biochemistry in UFSCar. His research field is Genetics of filamentous fungi. He is one of the most admired teachers in the course of Biotechnology, and highly committed with quality of education offered
to our students. He is a great supporter of UFSCar-Brazil team.
Paulo Teixeira Lacava
Professor of Basic and Applied Microbiology with expertise in biotechnology process applied to environment. Works with Agricultural Microbiology, Environmental Microbiology, Microbial Ecology, Plant-Microorganism Interaction and Microbial
Biological Control.
