I was born in Paris, France. I received my Ph.D. degree, specialized in the regulation of the expression of glucose transporters in adipocytes, from the University of Paris VII, in 1995. Then, I spent 7 years in Dundee, Scotland, as a Postdoctoral Fellow to work on insulin signaling in muscle cells. Since 2004, I work as a Senior Researcher at the Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale (INSERM), at the Centre de Recherche des Cordeliers, Paris. My current research is devoted to the study of the molecular mechanisms involved in insulin resistance induced by fatty acid derivatives, such as ceramide, in insulin sensitive tissues.
