Researcher

Asking questions and spending years looking for an answer?

You got me! I dived into academic research by joining the Pharmacist-Scientist Program at Paris Descartes University in 2009 and have not stopped since then.

My research focuses on infectious diseases agents (viruses, bacteria, fungi, and my favourite: parasites). I work on improving diagnostic strategies and pathogen clearance monitoring by using multi-omic approaches. This allows me to study host-pathogen interaction during infection course.

All my publications are linked in the publication tab and available full text upon request.

Educator

I have been teaching at the academic level since 2009, when I volunteered for teaching 'catch up' courses for high school student attending the first year of health studies (sanctioned by a highly competitive exam) to access Pharmacy and Medical school in Paris, France.

During my PhD, i worked as a teaching assistant (TA) for the 2nd year Pharmacy program study section and lab classes in analytical chemistry and physic chemistry.

I also thrive in translating my research in the community through outreach events in schools and community centres.

Teaching in various settings and with a diverse body of students fostered my teaching philosophy. My goal is to create an engaging, respectful and empowering learning environment to share my passion and knowledge.

Towards Gender Equity

Since 2021, I am the co-leader for the International and Immigrant Women in Science (IWS) chapter in Calgary, Canada. With my co-leader, I provide support, workshops, and resources to our members.

I am particularly involved in Gender equality/Equity issues and contributed to gender equality strategy drafting. Here are four steps I recommend to improve Gender Equality for graduate students and postdocs.
