Biography
Prof. Bruno WACOGNE FEMTO-ST Institute, France
Biography: Dr Bruno Wacogne is a CNRS Research Director at the FEMTO-ST Institute (one of the biggest Science and Technologies laboratory in France) where he was the head of the "Photonics for medical instrumentation" team before to join the BioMicroDevices group. He created and is now leading the Biom'@x transversal axis "Science et technology for personalized medicin" within this Institute. In 2010, at the request of Besançon University Hospital, he applied and has been awarded a Translational Research Fellow position from the National AVIESAN Alliance. This is a supplementary position that allows him to be at the interface between the health activities at the FEMTO-ST Institute and the Clinical Investigation Center in Technological Innovation at Besançon University Hospital. At the hospital, he is now the technological supervisor of the institution and the head of "Microsystems and biological qualification" unit. His research interests concern translational research, science and technology for health and more precisely immuno-combined medical devices, biological qualification devices and biomedical optics. He is author or co-author of about 230 communications among which 8 patents, 1 invited paper and about 30 invited conferences and keynote lectures. He is regularly chairman in international conferences and he co-organized the 14th International conference BIODEVICES in 2021. He has been awarded several times: Gold Micron at the International MICRONORA Workshop, Best Poster Award at the 2nd International Conference on Bio-sensing Technology, Amsterdam, The Nederlands. With his co-authors, he received the Best Paper Award at the 13th International Conference BIOSTEC in 2020. ___________________________________________________________________ Dr. Annie FRELET-BARRAND studied biochemistry at the University of Franche-Comté (France) and was graduated as MS in 1998. In 2006, she received her PhD degree on membrane proteins (MP) characterization at the Institute of Plant Biology, Zurich. During her postdoctoral fellowship (CEA Grenoble, France), she developed L. lactis system for functional characterization of MPs. In 2009, she became CNRS Researcher at CEA Saclay, studying MPs involved in liver detoxification. In 2015, she integrated the Institute FEMTO-ST and is now producing and characterizing by biological, biochemical and biophysical techniques diverse biological elements from MPs, vesicles to bacteria and mammalian cells. She published 19 research articles and 4 book chapters (h=14). ___________________________________________________________________ Alain Rouleau was born in 1975 in Grenoble (France). During these studies, he specialized in Biology including immunology, physiology, oncology and the design of devices for in vitro diagnostics. He is currently working at the Femto-ST Institute (Besançon, France) as a specialist in bio-interaction particularly in SPR (surface plasmon resonance). He is also technical manager of the CLIPP proteomic platform in Besancon.
