Raphaël Dutour

 

Biosketch

In 2013, I obtained my University Diploma of Technology in Biological Engineering in France. I then developed a passion for organic chemistry and so I decided to do a bachelor's degree in natural products chemistry in Canada. I pursued my university studies in Canada and got a master's degree in molecular medicine in 2017. I also obtained the Desjardins Training Grant for Research and Innovation and a distinction on the Honor Roll of Laval University in Quebec City. Currently, I am a PhD student and chemistry assistant at the Faculty of Medicine of the ULB, I work on the development of functionalized nanoparticles for biomedical applications.
