Guillaume DRIN awarded the CNRS Bronze Medal
The biophysicist Guillaume DRIN is a member of the dynamics of lipid membranes and protein coats team at the Institute of Molecular and Cellular Pharmacology
This 37-year old researcher studies proteins which, through their ability to recognise the shape or composition of cellular membranes, regulate key stages in intracellular traffic or the transport of lipids.
In doing so, Guillaume Drin pieces together the activity of these proteins in vitro using artificial membranes in order to understand their mechanisms through real-time measurements.
The biophysicist Guillaume DRIN is a member of the dynamics of lipid membranes and protein coats team at the Institute of Molecular and Cellular Pharmacology (UMR, CNRS - Nice Sophia Antipolis University).
The CNRS Bronze Medal recognizes a researcher's first work, which makes that person a specialist with a talent in a particular field. This award is a way for the CNRS to encourage the researcher to continue work that has met with initial success and already produced promising results.
The CNRS Bronze Medal will be awarded to Guillaume DRIN, CNRS Research Manager and Member of the "dynamics of lipid membranes and protein coats" team at the Institute of Molecular and Cellular Pharmacology, on Thursday 19th January 2012 at 11.00am.
