I am a research scientist at INRAE institute, in the department of Human Nutrition. I am working on the role of extracellular vesicles and sncRNA in the development of metabolic diseases, with a focus on the skeletal muscle.
LAM/TREM2+ macrophages release extracellular vesicles and extracellular lipid droplets which modulate the phenotype of recipient macrophages and homeostasis of skeletal muscle cells https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.01.26.634912v1
Happy to announce that our macrophage and its vesicular environment has won a scientific art prize at the Art in la Doua 2025 competition (university of lyon, FRANCE).

When science meets art #2
Just in time for Christmas, these immune cells released their beautiful extracellular vesicles.
