BIOGRAPHY

After a Ph.D in 2001, at the Faculty of Sciences in Nantes, where she was involved in European contracts devoted to the migration of radionuclides in the environment or from nuclear waste disposals, Cécile has been appointed, in 2005, as a teacher/researcher in the department of chemistry at UFR Santé of Rouen Normandy University, teaching general, physical and inorganic chemistry. She joined the bioorganic team of COBRA in 2010. Its current research focuses on the characterization of organic complexes such as gadolinium with modified cyclodextrins, evaluating their stability constants by potentiometric, spectrophotometric or ITC methods, in order to develop specific, stable and no toxic contrast agents for IRM applications. These areas of expertise are also used in projects implying metallic environmental depollution.
