PEOPLE

Team Leader

Born in 1978 in Bolivia, I have followed my basic education in my country until 1997, year in which I have been awarded a scholarship from the “Simon I. Patiño” Foundation to perform my undergraduate studies at the university of Geneva-Switzerland. In 2003 I have obtained a master's degree in Biochemistry from this university; then I have joined the IMP/Vienna Biocenter international Ph.D. program in Austria where I have been trained in meiotic recombination in the laboratory of Dr. Franz Klein (Max F. Perutz Laboratories)...read more

Elodie Mathieux performed her undergraduate  (bachelor in cell and animal physiology; 2008) and a Master training (biotechnology and therapeutic research; 2010) at the University of Nantes. In 2013 she obtained a Ph.D. in Neuroimmunology as part of the Medical School, Nantes County Hospital. In 2014, Elodie joined the Connecticut Health Center (Farmington, CT, USA) as postdoctoral fellow. As a member of SysFate, Elodie Mathieux drives the implementation of human 3D brain organoid cultures issued from human induced pluripotent cells (iPSCs).

Aysis Koshy has performed her master's internship within SysFate and obtained her master degree as part of the M2 Tissue, Cell and Gene Biotherapies; University Paris-Saclay.

Since September 2020 Aysis joined our team as PhD student.  

Elodie Mathieux; PhD

Postdoctoral fellow

François Stüder has obtained a master's degree in Bioinformatics at the University of Strasbourg in 2018.  François Stüder joined SysFate for participating in the development of computational solutions focused on the reconstruction of gene regulatory programs from single cell RNA-seq readouts. As a member of SysFate, François also participates at the implementation and maintenance of the qcGenomics database, as well as the bioinformatics developments required for the analysis of cell fate decisions implicated on 4D-brain organoid tissue cultures.
