mSSB students led several iGEM-Evry teams
| The iGEM Evry 2012 team received for the French Froggies project a Gold Medal, the Best Model and the Best Human Practices Awards (Europe) and Advanced to World Championship. The team designed a synthetic orthogonal hormonal system in a multicellular organisms, Xenopus.

  |
| The iGEM Evry Paris-Saclay 2018 received for the PEPTalk project a Gold Medal at the World Championship and was nominated for Best New Composite Part prize, Overgrad. The team repurposed the small peptide based signalling system of SPbeta group bacteriophages of Bacillus subtilis for application in Escherichia coli.

 |
| The iGEM Evry Paris-Saclay 2019 received for the Fat and Fabulous project a Gold Medal at the World Championship and was nominated for Best Measurement prize, Overgrad. The team developed a launchpad for bioproduction of medically-relevant Conjugated Linolenic Acids (CLnAs), which is a class of rare fatty acids with three conjugated bonds using the oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica, a powerful chassis organism, whose metabolism is naturally poised for lipid production.

| The iGEM Evry Paris-Saclay 2020 was launched. The team is interested in Rosewood species that are the most trafficked wildlife products and developed a biosensor based on toehold switches that will accelerate the identification process and thus empower local authorities to identify loggings species and origins in situ.
