My Career Path
I am a chemical engineer at AMU, where I mainly work in analytical chemistry. My role is to detect and quantify molecules for various research projects, whether for internal teams or private entities. In parallel, I train students and PhD candidates in the use of laboratory equipment. My work lies at the interface between scientific research and teaching, with a particular focus on health and environmental fields.
How did I join AMU?
I joined AMU through opportunities in scientific research, after being approached for a research contract. The quality of the projects and the support of my supervisors enabled me to grow within the university. This environment allows me to step away from the routine of the private sector and work on projects that are meaningful to me and aligned with my scientific convictions.
My Areas of Expertise
I specialize in analytical chemistry, which involves detecting and quantifying molecules using advanced equipment. I have worked on environmental projects, such as analyzing metals in animals or plants, and I now focus on materials for health. I also have expertise in training, where I support students and PhD candidates in mastering analytical techniques.
