Protein glycosylation is one of the major post-translational modifications, with significant effects on protein folding, conformation, distribution, stability and activity.
I’m Léa, a 2nd year PhD student. I obtained a Bachelor degree majoring in Chemistry and minoring in Biology from Sorbonne University followed by a Master Degree in Organic Therapeutic Chemistry from the University of Orléans. Those studies show my need to work at the interface chemistry-biology. During my Master Degree, I had the opportunity to discover the concept of bioconjugation and to specialise and acquire knowledge and skills in this field during 2 internship projects. That’s why I applied for this PhD project that combines everything I was looking for. At the end of these 3 years, I aspire to obtain the double cap of chemist and biochemist.
The Arcane LABEX allows me to acquire skills in the different aspects of this project, from organic synthesis to biochemistry. Also Arcane allows us to develop a strong network within the scientific community.
After my PhD, I hope to continue working in the field of bioconjugation or biochemistry , either in academia or in the industry.
