Presentation
Sophie Novault has joined the Institut Pasteur in January 2014 as a head of the flow cytometry platform, to initiate change, reorganize the team and manage the resources. Previously, she worked for ten years for a worldwide flow company, Becton Dickinson Biosciences (BD), first as an Application Specialist and then as the director of Training Center France. As a member of the European BD working group she participated to evaluation of new technologies. During the years spent at BD Sophie Novault acquired a high technical expertise in flow cytometry and cell sorting, and has developed a real sense of service activity and means to meet user’s satisfaction.
Since the creation of the Center for Translational Science of the Institut Pasteur (CRT), and subsequently of the CB UTechS Sophie Novault has been responsible of the Cytometry Activity/Platform. She has been using her experience and expertise to develop new methods and applications of existing equipment, ensure the implementation of new, emerging technologies for flow cytometry and to provide excellence in training and teaching of the community.
