I’m a postdoctoral scientist at the Developmental Biology Institute of Marseille (IBDM) in Flavio MAINA team “Signaling networks for stemness and tumorigenesis”, since December 2020. My research topic is about understanding ADAMTSL5 function, a recently discovered oncogene, overexpressed in hepatocellular carcinomas.

After studying Cell Biology, I received a Master Degree in Developmental Biology and Immunology in 2016. I did my PhD thesis at the Research Cancer Center of Marseille (CRCM) on pancreatic cancer where I studied the E-cadherin function in cancer cell invasion and aggressiveness. In the mean time, I taught Cell Biology to undergraduate students in life science in Aix-Marseille University (AMU).
