Biography

Nicolas obtained his PhD from the University of Strasbourg, France, studying how vertebrates regulate their size and vertebrae number. He then moved on to a first post-doc at Stanford University to study how cells, within organs, communicate with each other over long distances. He finally moved to the Stowers Institute for Medical Research where he discovered how immune cells control organ regeneration in zebrafish. At Janelia, Nicolas will use his problem solving skills and microscopy knowledge to help researchers tackling some of the most challenging questions in biology.
