Christophe Huret
Lab Manager | Vectorology platform manager (Université Paris Cité)
+33(0)157278929
Christophe obtained his Master’s degree in ”Cellular and Molecular Biology Speciality Immunotechnologies and biotherapies” at Sorbonne University. He was recruited as an engineer in David Klatzmann’s lab (CHU La Pitié Salpétriêre) to develop a new genetic vaccine to protect against the HCV virus. In parallel, he worked on the Compuvac project for 5 years to standardize different immunologic tests in order to compare different vectors (AAV, VLP, Lentivirus, DNA …).
He joined Claire Rougeulle’s team in 2011 as lab manager and works on human X inactivation during development.
In parallel, he has the responsibility to manage the Vectorology platform and dispense training on lentiviral vectors’ production and use.
In his spare time, Christophe enjoys playing badminton and tennis. He is responsible for the scout development department (Département du Val d’Oise).
