TEAM PROFILES

Iolanda Albuquerque

I am Iolanda M.D. Albuquerque Silva, one of UNICAMP-EMSE team team advisors. I am currently on my PhD studies in Processing Engineering at the Center for Health Engineering at the Ecole de Mines de Saint Etienne ([http://www.emse.fr EMSE]). I am also a Young Ambassador of France (Rhône-Alpes Region) in Brazil. I've fallen in love with iGEM at the first sight! Then I thought how great would be if we put together two different countries to realize an iGEM project. After that, my young ambassador spirit didn’t calm down until we create our bi-national team for 2011 iGEM! And here we are today…
