Summary
- I am a physician-scientist in the Department of Sarcoma Medical Oncology. I received my medical degree in 2014 and my medical oncology specialty in 2020 from Paris University (France). During my residency and fellowship in France, I trained at Gustave Roussy Cancer Center and completed a master of science in Immunology in 2019. After completion of my clinical training, I pursued a research post-doctoral fellowship at MD Anderson during two years, focusing on characterizing the immune microenvironment of sarcomas and identifying new immune therapeutic targets to improve sarcoma care. I have a particular interest in the care of patients with leiomyosarcomas and undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcomas. My main research focus are leiomyosarcomas, undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcomas, i mmunotherapy, and drug development in sarcomas.
