I am an Associate Professor of Biological Sciences at the Institut Pasteur de Tunis, Tunisia. My research focuses on marine biotoxins, natural toxins, venoms, toxicology, and the identification of bioactive molecules with potential therapeutic applications. My work combines toxicological assessment, molecular and cellular approaches, and the investigation of toxin-induced biological effects, with particular interest in marine phycotoxins and venom-derived compounds. I am actively involved in national and international research collaborations, scientific evaluation, and academic training. My current scientific interests include toxin mechanisms of action, food and environmental safety, natural-product pharmacology, biomolecules derived from venoms and marine organisms, and their potential applications in drug discovery and theranostics.
