PhD
I was born in Albertville (in the French Alps) in 1983 so I really enjoy skiing since I am little.
I got my Master in Physiology at the University of Lyon (France). I then moved to the University of Lausanne (Switzerland) to obtain my PhD in Life Sciences in the laboratory of Pr Eric Raddatz.
I am currently doing a two years postdoctoral fellowship under the supervision of Dr Sandrine Lecour.
Research Projects
My current project deals with the cardioprotective effect of High Density Lipoprotein against ischemia/reperfusion injury, with a focus on a specific component: sphingosine-1-phosphate.
