About

During my PhD in C. Gauthier-Rouvière lab (2003-2007), I combined biochemical and cell biology approaches to study the dynamics of cadherin-mediated cell-cell adhesion. I then moved to the USA in G. Bokoch lab (2008-2012) for a postdoc where, using cutting edge microscopy techniques, I studied how reactive oxygen species modulate actin dynamics to promote cell migration and how they contribute to cancer cell invasiveness. Finally, I joined the lab of B. Delaval (2012-2017) where I used different systems (2D and 3D cell culture) to study the role of ciliary transport proteins during cell division and their contribution to kidney diseases.
