Présentation

I joined the School in 2015 as an administrative assistant after a varied career between science and industry.

I worked for 5 years in the Faculty of Basic Sciences, first with Prof. Sivula in Chemical Science and Engineering (molecular engineering of optoelectronic nanomaterials), then with Profs. Kneib, Courbin and Jablonka in Astrophysics. 

In 2020, I joined the Biotech Campus Geneva and the Faculty of Life Sciences with Prof. Blanke's laboratory in cognitive Neuroscience, which focuses its research and clinical projects on the brain mechanisms of body perception, body awareness and self-awareness. 

Recently, I joined the Faculty of Engineering with Prof. Lacour's laboratory (soft bioelectronic interfaces), within Neuro-X Institute, which is oriented towards inter-school collaboration and focuses its teaching and projects on science, industry and clinical projects. 

I assist a multidisciplinary group at the crossroads of engineering and biology. This interdisciplinary is the common denominator of my professional choices, and it also illustrates the profession of lab administrative assistant at EPFL. 

Enriched by these experiences, I'd like to get involved in representing my profession in the future.
