Accomplishments:
Master in physics, PhD in molecular biology. My area of expertise is in molecular biology and technical development. During my scientific career I worked for different projects for public and private research centers in Russia, France, Europe and the United States. My first scientific experience was in study of non-canonical conformation of DNA and RNA. Then, during ten years my research focus had been on real time microarray technology. As a group leader, I participated in the research programs carried out in Russia and in the United States aimed at on chip DNA sequencing. I managed a project of development and validation of innovative microarray reader for registration of real-time on-chip processes and was involved in the development of protocols for analysis of biomedical images. In 2011 I was invited to lead one of the first projects in Russia focused on study of tumor exosomes as a potential source of biomarkers. We were working on approaches allowing accurate quantification of rare populations of cancer stem cell markers-positive exosomes isolated from cell culture supernatants and physiological fluids of cancer patients. At present I am working at Genopole (Evry, France) for the creation of startup in the field of personalized medicine.

    Description: I'm working for creation of the startup in the field of personalized medicine. The objective: development of the techniques allowing increasing sensitivity of extracellular vesicles proteins profiling
Description:
The project focuses on the detection of exosomes (small vesicles that circulate in the blood and urine) and their applications in the diagnosis of various pathologies, in particular cancer. The goal - to acquire a sensitivity much greater than that existing to date with the competitors. This makes it possible to detect very small amounts of pathological exosomes and improve the diagnostic accuracy of various diseases.
