A portrait of our newly minted IMCBio PhD researchers
In our fifth edition of Welcome to IMCBio we have portrait from Fanny, from France.
Fanny Lebois – Manuel Mendoza’s team, IGBMC
Originally from France, Fanny completed her Master’s degree in Molecular Biology and Genetics at the University of Bordeaux in 2024. During her studies, she developed a strong passion for gene regulation, particularly at the level of RNAs. She gained hands-on experience through four internships, both in France and abroad (Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm and Gurdon Institute in Cambridge, UK). These experiences allowed her to work in multidisciplinary research environments and significantly enriched her scientific expertise.
Since September 2024, Fanny has been a PhD student at the IGBMC in Strasbourg, working in Manuel Mendoza’s team. Her research focuses on unraveling the molecular mechanisms of gene-specific buffering of mRNAs in mouse embryonic stem cells and during differentiation.
Fanny chose the IMCBio program for its emphasis on interdisciplinary research and its vibrant international community, which provides unique opportunities for collaboration and scientific growth. She is excited to contribute to the dynamic and innovative environment fostered by the IMCBio program while advancing her knowledge in molecular biology and gene regulation.
