molecule  to  accommodate  a  targeted  protein.[5-­‐8]  Application  to  screening  of  library  of  molecules.[9]  

    Challenge:  To  use  the  same  algorithm  to  predict  the  catalyst  for  given  asymmetric  reactions.[10]  

• COMPUTATIONAL  BIOLOGY:     Challenge:  To  create  a  model  that  predicts  the  outcome  of  many  to  many  biological  molecule  interactions.  Application  to  the  design  of  new  regulators  of  gene  expression.[11]  

EXPERIENCE     RESEARCH  POSITION,  UNIVERSITÉ  DE  MONTRÉAL  (IRIC)  

2011-­‐present  My  researches  are  focused  on  the  reprogramation  of  cancer  cells  using  microRNAs.    

RESEARCH  POSITION  

2009-­‐2011  I  applied  a  knowledge  based  system  tu  design  new  active  molecules  for  Parkinson  disease.  

EDUCATION     UNIVERSITÉ  DE  STRASBOURG,  PHD  2006-­‐2009  

Topic:  pharmaceutical  Science.    I  applied  learning  machine  technics  to  predict  impact  of  active  molecules  on  proteins  (side  effects)  and  to  discover  new  drugs  for  a  given  target.
