I am a scientist interested in the molecular bases of human disease. I am working at the University of Bern in Switzerland. Following a sabbatical stay in 2021 at the University of Kinshasa in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Fes (Morocco), my goal is to give the opportunity to young and motivated scientists from these Universities to gain new knowledge about academic Medicine.
