Research

I am a researcher with Project-Team BEAGLE, a joint research group between

  • INRIA, the French National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Control, and
  • LIRIS laboratory (UMR 5205 CNRS - INSA Lyon - Univ. Lyon 1).

We are located in Lyon, France.

I am working in computational cell biology, the use of computer or mathematical models to study intra-cellular dynamics.

Currently, I am focusing on two aspects :

(i) the influence of space and molecular crowding in cell signaling and biochemistry.

(ii) the intracellular biochemical networks at work in synaptic plasticity and its modulation, in particular by astrocytes.
