Candice Babarit

I have a Master's Degree in Cell Biology and Physiology and a Professional Master in Technologies and Projects in Biochemical Engineering.

I have 2 years of experience in the private sector in cancer research at the Servier Research Institute and in R&D at Tebu-bio. I joined academic research in 2008, in the unit INSERM U781 (Genetics and Embryology of Congenital Diseases - Hospital Necker) where I specialized in in situ hybridization for the detection of transcripts during human embryonic development.

I joined PAnTher unit in 2009 as an INRAE study engineer. I run and develop molecular tissue exploration techniques (hybridation in situ, laser microdissection) for the APEX platform. As part of my research activities, I conduct molecular exploration of tissues of neuromuscular diseases animal models (Pompe disease and spinal amyotrophy) to understand their physiopathological mechanisms. I also participate in the molecular characterization of myogenic progenitors, including MuStem cells, a population of stem cells derived from adult muscle cells. To this aim, I have acquired skills in bio-informatics analysis of transcriptomic data (RNAseq, scRNAseq).
