Vincent SAUVEPLANE
Vincent Sauveplane research interest is to decipher the rules driving gene expression in the gram-positive bacterium B. subtilis. His project will complete our knowledge of the biology of B. subtilis and will allow future rational designs of genetic circuits dedicated to biotechnological and synthetic biology applications. To summarize the project, we are interested in building […]
Anne-Gaëlle PLANSON
Anne-Gaëlle Planson’s research interests lie in the field of synthetic biology, with a particular focus on genome engineering, metabolic engineering and the engineering of synthetic consortia. Her projects involve both the construction and optimization of cellular chassis for the production of compounds of industrial and pharmaceutical interest, and the understanding of the fundamental molecular mechanisms […]
Ingrid ADRIAANS
I am working on in vitro reconstitution assays using biomimetic membranes and the actin homologue MreB from Bacillus subtilis. My focus will be studying the dynamics and biophysical properties of MreB on Supported Lipid Bilayers (SLBs) using TIRF microscopy.
Rut CARBALLIDO LOPEZ
Research Director at INRA, Rut heads the ProCeD team. She also animates the Systems and Synthetic Microbiology (MSS) research pillars and is Deputy-Director of the Micalis Institute. Rut received her PhD from the University of Oxford, UK, where she was instrumental in the landmark discovery that bacteria possess homologues of eukaryotic actin, namely MreB proteins, […]
Armand LABLAINE
Bacillales spores are among the most intriguing life forms: unbelievably resistant, sticky, elusive for our macrophages and sometimes encased in an extravagant balloon-like exosporium. Spores also have an unavoidable impact on our societies. On the one hand, they are the causative agents of fatal diseases such as anthrax and are frequently responsible of food poisoning. […]
Dimitri JUILLOT
I started my post-doctoral project in 2024 and I work on Streptococcus pneumoniae and Bacillus subtilis.
Arnaud CHASTANET
My research projects aim at understanding how living organisms acquire and maintain their shape. For this, I am studying Bacillus subtilis a well-known bacterial model that keep a very constant rod shaped along generations, and in particular how these cells build their envelop, the cell wall. This wall forms a protective, rigid structure outside of […]
