A new student in R.Benton’s lab

Jeanne Du Fay De Lavallaz obtained her Maturity in Burier High school in July 2010. She took part in a four-week lab research in the Weizmann Institute in Israel in July 2009 and worked occasionally during 2009-2010 in Christian Fankhauser’s lab at the CIG. Before going to study medicine at the University of Fribourg, Jeanne will join Richard Benton’s lab for six weeks in July and work with Michael Saina.

Mystères de l’UNIL 2010

Mysteres de l’UNIL: Several activities have been proposed by the CIG besides the labs visits (C. Fankhauser, R. Benton, GTF). They was an activity on te circadian rhythm (F. La Spada et S. Dorsaz), a movie “l’ADN vu par Holywood” (L. Michalik) and an activity on the cow genome (A.Reymond). A tree of genetics traits which was part of that activity is now in the Genopode hall.

Many thanks to all people who participated!
