Jérémie received his formal training in Genetics at Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris. He then joined Dr. Eric Miska’s laboratory (University of Cambridge, UK) as a grad student to study small RNA biology in the nematode species C. elegans. Jérémie’s grad school debut in 2011 coincided with the discovery of the first C. elegans natural virus. Jérémie seized the opportunity and contributed to the initial studies characterizing viral infection and antiviral immunity in nematodes. Since 2017, Jérémie is a postdoctoral trainee in Charles Rice’s group (Rockefeller University, NY), where he contributes to collaborative projects using both human genetics and in vitro genetic screens to better understand how the human innate immune system controls RNA viruses and live-attenuated vaccines. Since 2020, Jérémie has been part of the COVID-19 response team at Rockefeller university, he is contributing to key studies on SARS-CoV-2 biology. Jérémie co-authored publications in an array of fields, including transgenerational epigenetic inheritance, small regulatory RNAs, RNA modifications, human genetics, virology and innate immunity. Jérémie is an EMBO postdoctoral fellow.
