Biography: since 10/2005 F. Hoffmann La Roche, Basel, Switzerland
I’m working in a GxP environment and concerned with
mass spectrometry of therapeutic antibodies and small
molecules. My responsibilities are the leading of the mass
spectrometry laboratory, development and validation of methods,
scheduling and procedure of analysis and whose reporting.
2002 - 2005 Proteomics Core Facility, EMBL European Molecular Biology
Laboratories, Heidelberg, Germany
Acquired techniques from protein isolation up to their
identification by mass spectrometry through spectrum evaluation and
database searches. My responsibilities were the works with internal
and external customers to the institute and their projects. As an
example, I identified marker proteins in different body fluids,
proteins of stem cells from cell culture, blood and bone marrow.

Biography: I received a Ph.D. in molecular biology and biochemistry in July 2004 from the University of Nancy, Lorraine, France. I joined EMBL in July 2004 as a postdoctoral researcher in the group of Elisa Izaurralde. In July 2006 I followed Elisa Izaurralde to the Department of Biochemistry at the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology, Tübingen, Germany. In January 2007, I went back to France, as a team leader (CNRS-CR2).
