Présentation

I'm a CNRS Research Director trying to understand how proteins work using modeling tools such as all-atom Molecular Dynamics or coarse-grain approaches. I am also interested in science popularization and present my favorite proteins on the blog "Top of the Prots" (https://topoftheprots.com/, in french)
