ABOUT ME

I am a research scientist who obtained a bachelor’s and a Ph.D. degree in Biochemistry from Université de Montréal, Montréal, Canada, where I grew up. I then completed postdoctoral studies in structural biology at Harvard Medical School in the BCMP Department under the supervision of Gerhard Wagner. I became proficient in biophysical characterization of proteins and structure determination using NMR and X-ray crystallography.
