Specialized Field: Pluripotent stem cell

Yann Tapponnier is a PhD student working on rabbit induced pluripotent stem cells. He studied at the university of Lyon 1 (Claude Bernard) where he obtained his licence in Genetics and Cell Biology in 2008 and his master degree in Functional Genomics and Cellular Pathology in 2010. He is now preparing his thesis on the generation of induced pluripotent stem cell lines suitable for embryonic colonization in rabbit, at the INSERM Stem Cell and Brain Research institute, in the Pierre Savatier's team under the supervision of Marielle Afanassieff.

Catch-Phrase: Development of transgenic technics based on pluripotent stem cells in rabbit.
