Curriculum Vitae
Florence Vincent a obtenu un doctorat en 2001 en Biologie Structurale à l’Université d’Aix-Marseille (directeur : Dr Christian Cambillau), et une formation post-doctorale de 2001 à 2004 au York Structural Biology Laboratory, Dept. Chemistry (directeur: Dr Gideon Davies), Royaume-Uni. Elle est actuellement chercheure dans l’équipe “Glycobiologie et Neurobiologie Structurales” au Laboratoire Architecture et Fonction des Macromolécules Biologiques, Université Aix-Marseille, Marseille, France. Ses recherches actuelles sont centrées sur la structure et la fonction d’enzymes impliquées dans la lyse de la paroi bactérienne et le développement de biofilm par les bactéries pathogènes.
