About

I come from Brittany, where the sea and wind taught me curiosity and wonder. Biology soon became my path, leading me from Rennes to Bordeaux to continue my academic journey, where I discovered microscopy during internship—a passion that revealed hidden worlds and has guided me ever since.

My journey then took me to Lyon, where I first worked as a research assistant and explored DNA repair in muscle cells. Then I began PhD student devoted to oxidative stress in spinal muscular atrophy. Each project has been like opening a new chapter, deepening my fascination with the mysteries of life and the resilience of cells.

Beyond the lab, music is the heartbeat of my life, setting the rhythm for my days and weekends—new sounds discovered during the week, and concerts filling my weekends with energy and joy.
Around this rhythm, I find balance in movement and nature: I swim competitively, and I hike through the Rhône-Alpes mountains with my camera in hand to capture the landscapes—another passion of mine.

For me, science, nature, and art all speak the same language: a way to explore, to feel, and to connect with the world.
