About

SUMMARY I have a passion for Science and creative healthcare innovations. I focus my attention on improving the two-way connection between scientific progress and clinical applications in order to accelerate the development of effective therapies for brain disorders. For the past 20 years I have led multi-disciplinary teams of scientists in agile organizations aiming to produce drug discovery breakthroughs. 18 years ago, I co-founded SynapCell SAS and recruited talented collaborators to help worldwide CNS drug makers to innovate.
