Professional Positions |
|
| 2006-2010 |
Postdoctoral fellow in the "Neurobiology of ionic channels" lab (Inserm UMR 641, Marseille, France). I work in the "Neuronal Polarity and ionic channels" team led by Dr Bénédicte Dargent. It is a cellular neurobiology team devoted to the study of the axonal initial segment and the intracellular targeting of Nav sodium channels (see Research). ANR posdtoctoral (2006-2008), ARSEP (2009) and NMSS (2010-2011) fellowships |
| 2002-2006 |
PhD in the "Neurobiology and cellular diversity" lab (ESPCI-CNRS UMR 7637, Paris) with Dr Zsolt Lenkei. I studied the trafficking and targeting of the neuronal cannabinoid receptor CB1. In neurons, this receptor is expressed on the axonal surface as the result of a selective endocytosis in the somatodendritic compartment (see Research). Engineer PhD fellowship (2002-2005), Assistant professor (ATER, 2006) |
