Passionate about science, I am currently in the second year of my Biomedical Sciences PhD in microbiology in the LalouxLab. My research focuses on a fascinating predator, the bacterium Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus, and its atypical cell cycle that causes the death of other bacteria.

Study of the efficacy of a potential living-antibiotic, the bacterium Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus, inside and outside a research station in a Mars-like environment
Due to its particularity of killing other bacteria without killing human cells, Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus is being studied as a serious alternative to antibiotics, especially against resistant strains. Moreover, unlike antibiotics, its effectiveness over time does not diminish, which is particularly relevant for long-term travels such as the transport and establishment of a colony on Mars. […]
