“I work in the exciting field of stem cell research, as an
associate professor and researcher. I worked on the early stages
of human Lymphopoiesis, that is to say how lymphoid cells develop
from immature cells called human stem cells. I devote much time
to teaching cell biology to medical students..
In parallel, I do my research in an Inserm laboratory where cooperation
with students is essential. I am working on understanding the
emergence of blood cells from human stem cells, for therapeutic
purposes: improving and optimizing clinical protocols for physicians
and the establishment of protocols for regenerative therapy which
will allow the manufacture of custom-made blood cells, starting
from the stem cells of the patient.
The
biomedicine agency and existing bioethics laws govern
our research work. Another limitation is of a technical and experimental
nature; the researcher permanently doubts. This allows them to
exceed their limits and advance their field of expertise. Doubt
is offset by enthusiasm, curiosity and the ability to interact
with peers, colleagues, students.
Research goes beyond boundaries, it rests on sharing knowledge
to make it universal. However, we must remain humble and patient
regarding the results obtained. Not all research leads to extraordinary
success. A bit like an artist, the researcher will leave their
mark, with perseverance it contributes building blocks to the
edifice of the construction of humanity not only to overcome
prejudices, but also ensure a better community life.” |
