Short bio

I have been trained in chemistry at Bordeaux University. I did a PhD from 2004 to 2007 in supramolecular chemistry under the supervision of Dr. Ivan Huc. I worked on the development of proteomimetic structures using abiotic foldamers. I then obtained a fellowship from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Sciences (JSPS) to join the group of Prof. Itaru Hamachi at Kyoto University where I worked on new peptidyl receptors for peptide recognition. In 2009, I came back to France as temporary lecturer (ATER) at the Laboratoire des Biomolécules (LBM, UMR 7203), where I worked with Prof. Philippe Karoyan to develop foldamers based on proline derivatives. I have been appointed as CNRS researcher in 2010 and joined the group of Clotilde Policar at the LBM. I first worked on the conjugation of bioactive molecules with peptide to enhance their penetration and bioavaibality as well on the development of multimodal metal-based probes. Now I want to combine peptide and metal ions to synergistically take advantages of the properties of both classes of molecules by developing new peptidyl metalloprobes and metallodrugs.
