DIJON
- I am a physiologist and biochemist. I studied plan and animal biochemistry at the University Paul Sabatier, Toulouse. I obtained my PhD on 1991. I did a post-doctoral training at the University of Hull (GB) under the responsibility of Prof. Colin Ratledge. Currently I am employed at INRA as a Senior Scientist in the CSGA in the research group on saliva and perception.
- My main research interest focuses on food aroma metabolism. Particularly, my research focuses on the identification and regulation of aroma metabolic pathways in complex biological systems (from plant to human). I am working currently on the importance of the oral sphere and saliva in the formation and release of flavor and taste compounds during food consumption and is focusing on fat and lipids. I have been published more than 90 papers and book chapters, applied for 5 patents, presented 40 oral communications and 65 poster communications, all in the field of flavour biochemistry and metabolism. I have been supervised numerous student and young researchers including post-doctoral researchers. I have been involved in about 10 research contracts (National and European) as the scientific manager as well as the coordinator. I am currently leading the AlimaSSenS project that aims to propose food products better adapted to the oral physiology of elderly people living at home. The project is supported by the ANR. It involves 15 partners and the total budget is more than 6M€.
