I am a Research Engineer specializing in molecular biology and next-generation sequencing, with extensive expertise in pathogen detection, genomic analysis, and molecular epidemiology. As a member of the Pathogen Genotyping Group within the Environment and Infectious Risks Unit at the Institut Pasteur, I contribute to the rapid genetic characterization of pathogens during bio-emergencies and support global health initiatives.
My work focuses on the development and implementation of cutting-edge diagnostic tools, including high-throughput sequencing technologies such as Illumina and Oxford Nanopore, to identify and monitor emerging pathogens. I actively participate in the setup and deployment of mobile laboratories for field diagnostics, enhancing rapid response capabilities during health crises.
Additionally, I have co-organized international training workshops and transferred sequencing technologies to laboratories worldwide, empowering teams to address global health challenges effectively. Driven by innovation and collaboration, I aim to advance genomic research and improve pathogen surveillance systems for public health protection.
