Research
My current project continues the work of my previous thesis and aims to study the spatio-temporal evolution and (epi)genomics of anaplastic thyroid cancer, under the supervision of Maxime Tarabichi.
Biography
I am Mathieu! I am a member of the Computational Biology lab at IRIBHM. I hold a Master's degree in Bioengineering in Chemistry and Bioindustries from the University of Louvain-la-Neuve. My master’s thesis focused on creating fusion protein nets designed to polymerize around pathogenic bacteria, under the supervision of Patrice Soumillion. In addition, I participated in the International Genetically Engineered Machine (iGEM) competition in 2018 with UCLouvain. Our project, BactWars: A New Hope for Antimicrobial Resistance and Global Epidemics, involved designing and engineering a conjugative plasmid equipped with a CRISPR-Cas9 system and one or more guide RNAs. This plasmid would propagate within bacteria and neutralize specific genes to either re-sensitize or kill the bacteria. Afterward, I completed a second Master's degree in Bioinformatics at ULB.
