About me

Welcome to my personal web page.

I am currently a Bioinformatics Engineer at INRAE Human Nutrition Research Unit and the Exploration of Metabolism Platform . I develop semantic web solution to integrate heterogeneous biological data, with the purpose of discovering new biomarkers and/or new nutritional strategies to support a long lifespan in good health.
