Team
Hi everyone!!!
We are team iBB from the University of Pune. Our institute is a center for excellence in research in biotechnology.
Our iGEM Team consists of 7 undergrads and 2 advisors.
The IBB iGEM story
It all began in July 2008 when Samit read about iGEM and found the whole idea fascinated him...it remained a topic of hot discussions and really intense brainstorming for months together until it slowly waned away due to the exams and normal curriculum.....people forgot what iGEM was until the day a mail was received by Mandar about the registration, and as always the IBB trio; Mandar, Swetha and Samit started the registration process at the eleventh hour....The task was tedious and tiring and there was a lot of red tapism they had to go through... finally the hard work paid off... And IBB got into iGEM.....
Wish us luck!
