Contribution to research breakthrough

Circa 2013 I was solicited on short notice to build a specific apparatus. This device was absent from the market for scientific research and had to be custom made and sent to the field in Kenya a.s.a.p. otherwise the experiments would not resume with the expected data.

Five years later, a publication (PMID: 29439024) came out with a major breakthrough! A monumental 10 years of research came to a conclusion — the research team did some very heavy lifting, I am glad I was able to provide just one piece that unclogged a bottleneck!

Contribution à la recherche en Chronobiologie / 2004 – 2013

• Ingénierie pour la science: conception (hardware & software) d’un système de monitoring d’activité circadienne robuste à grande échelle, dispatché dans des universités et labos dans plusieur pays (France, République Tchèque, Pays-Bas, Allemagne, Maroc, Kenya, Afrique du sud, Mali)

• Contributions techniques ayant permis l’avancée de recherches clés en Chronobiologie (Collaboration Inserm/CNRS/Salk Institute)

• Cobaye humain participant à l’avancée de la chronobiologie, désormais reconnue d’utilité publique (santé globale, régimes intermittents, Alzheimer, Parkinson). Un secteur économique important existe aujourd’hui issu de ce domaine.
