InRoad : a Horizon 2020 project going towards better synchronisation of priority settings and evaluation mechanisms for research infrastructures beyond national relevance http://inroad.eu/ My role in the project is to co-manage one of the work packages, to analyse the business planning of the European research infrastructures of the national as well as international relevance.

At IEEPI I was in charge of the management of professional training in the intellectual property field. The training is designed for the knowledge and technology transfer professionals with at least three years of the field experience, and prepare attendees for the pan-European EuKTS certification.

In the frame of the Master program Ingénierie de projets innovant and in the partnership with local startup accelerator SEMIA, I was actively participating in the business development of a young technological company KEEY aerogel (created in July 2015) http://www.keey-aerogel.com/

Postdoctoral project in relation with PhD thesis subject : Characterization of peptide-membrane and peptide-DNA interaction of cell-penetrating transfection peptides The work was conducted with Membrane Biophysics and solid-state NMR team : http://www-chimie.u-strasbg.fr/~rmnmc/

Doctoral thesis preparation within a joint PhD program between University of Strasbourg and the University of Basel (Biozentrum). The goal of my PhD project was to provide the better understanding of the interaction between cationic amphipathic peptides with model membrane and nucleic acid, and the mechanism of gene delivery by those peptides. This will allow the development of more efficient peptide-based transfection agents.

Quality control of the final products for the compound (fine chemicals) libraries (by liquid NMR & LCMS)

Synthesis of building blocks (fine chemicals) for the screening libraries

Management of the innovation and technology transfer, market study, corporate finance, competitive intelligence

Biophysics of biological membranes and membrane-active peptides, solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance of soft matter

Organic chemistry, chemistry of natural colorants
