After obtaining a double PharmD-PhD diploma from the University of Picardie Jules Verne, I embarked on a career as a virologist. I am a member of the AGIR (UR 4294) laboratory at the university and the Virology Department at the Amiens University Medical Centre in France. My fields of expertise are: - clinical virology for common viral diseases in the general population and in immunocompromised individuals. - Fundamental and cross-sectional research into polyomaviruses (BK virus and JC virus) and their associated microRNAs. I am also a member of the committee of the French Microbiology Society (Population Genomics and Epidemiology section).
