I am a Senior R&D Scientist and Project Leader specialized in biofilm microbiology, antimicrobial coatings, wound-care materials, biomaterials, antimicrobial peptides, and delivery systems. My work focuses on translating microbiology, surface science, and biomaterials into credible biological evidence for medical materials and product development. I help design and interpret antimicrobial and anti-biofilm testing strategies, including bacterial adhesion, biofilm models, coating validation, cytotoxicity, leaching, accelerated aging, and product-relevant biological performance.
Training in microbiology, bacteriology, virology, parasitology, environmental quality, and public health. Research project on genotypic and phenotypic characterization of biofilm production in Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains from the Bone Marrow Transplant Center of Tunis. Additional training in microbial biodiversity and biotechnology at the Oceanological Observatory of Banyuls-sur-Mer.
