Biography

During my bachelor and master in Physics at the University of Torino (Italy) and one year as Erasmus student at the University Joseph Fourier in Grenoble (France) I had the opportunity to develop my interest for physics applied to live science. I did a joined PhD between two CNRS labs in Grenoble (2011-2014) at the Néel Institute and the Laboratory of Technologies of Microelectronics (LTM). I worked on primary brain cell growth and response in in vitro controlled systems, focusing on neuronal polarization and glial cell sensitivity to mechanical properties of their environment. I did a Post-Doc in the Roux lab at the University of Geneva (2015-2020), working on epithelium mechanics in curved and controlled environment. I joined the Lyon Institute of Nanotechnology (INL) as a CNRS researcher to work on bio-mimic microsystems for organs-on-chip.
