Maud Contrant

PhD with more than 3 years of post-doctoral experience into Innovative Research of Molecular Biology aspect of Diseases (characterization of interactions and regulation pathways involving miRNAs, RNAs and proteins). Globally, I led research projects to understand more precisely the pathogenesis related to viruses. Now, for my project related to Influenza A virus, I am elucidating and deciphering the mechanisms controling the Influenza A viral packaging at the RNA level. Strong expertise in RNA research and molecular mechanism. Extensive experience with sequencing and NGS library preparation and and analyses through all my research projects. I learned and optimized powerful technics (SHAPE, iCLIP, MIME) leading me to be particularly motivated towards problem solving.
