BENEDICTE LEFEVRE

After a PhD on the "Evolution of a novel left-right asymmetry in Drosophila pachea" under the direction of Michael Lang in the team of Virginie Courtier-Orgogozo at the Institut Jacques Monod, Paris, I joined the lab of Allison Bardin in September 2021 as a postdoc. I am now investigating the effects of physical forces on tissue homeostasis and stem cells in Drosophila menalogaster midgut. In addition, I am involved in the creation and coordiation of En Quête de Bio, a scientific outreach for children of primary schools (www.eqd-bio.org).
