Delphine did her PhD at the Centre de Recherche en Cancérologie de Lyon (CRCL) under the supervision of Virginie Petrilli. Her doctoral work focused on the pro-inflammatory protein NLRP3, for which she highlighted a new role in the maintenance of genomic integrity, in connection with DNA repair mechanisms. Delphine joined the Polo group in April 2025 to characterize the role of repair proteins in pediatric gliomas haboring mutations in histone H3.
