Magali MICHAUT
Researcher in computational biology
Hi!
My name is Magali Michaut. I am currently working on the stratification of colorectal cancer at the Netherlands Cancer Institute in Amsterdam. The main goal is to redefine the disease at the molecular level to be able to identify and validate new targets and develop diagnostic tools.
From 2009 to 2011, I worked at the Terrence Donnelly Centre for Cellular and Biomolecular Research at the University of Toronto in Canada in Gary Bader's lab on yeast functional genomics.
During my PhD, I investigated transcriptomic and proteomic data to study the responses to oxidative stress and heavy metals under the supervision of Jean-Christophe Aude and Pierre Legrain in the Institute of Biology and Technologies of Saclay (iBiTec-S). I defended my PhD in 2008, November 28th.
In the years 2000 to 2002, I prepared national exams in the French "classes preparatoires" two years long. Then I joined the engineer school Supelec where I learned computer science, signal processing, automatic, electronic and electrotechnology, ... as well as other subjects included in the engineering student training.
Since I was interested in molecular biology and genetics, I decided to move towards bioinformatics. I did a master of research in computer science during my third year in Supelec and graduated in 2005.
After obtaining my master degree and my engineer diploma, I began my PhD in bioinformatics at the CEA.
Apart from that, I play the violin and used to play in an orchestra in Paris and practise tennis in competition in my free time.
Kind regards,
Magali

2009 - 2012I work on a multiple perturbation project in yeast. The aim is to construct a map of the yeast cell based on genetic interactions as well as high-content screening experiments, chemogenomic information or protein-protein interactions.
2007 - 2007The European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) is a non-profit academic organisation that forms part of the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) located near Cambridge (UK) (in Hinxton exactly). The EBI is a centre for research and services in bioinformatics. The Institute manages databases of biological data including nucleic acid, protein sequences and macromolecular structures.
I have been granted a Marie Curie Fellowship to join the IntAct team and work on protein-protein interaction prediction using ortholog. I have developped 2 prediction methods that I have applied on the cyanobacteria Synechocystis.

2005 - 2008The Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) is a French government-funded technological research organisation. The main fields are: energy, health and information technologies, defense and security.
I am currently doing my PhD in bioinformatics in the Institute of Biology and Technologies of Saclay (iBiTec-S). I am interested transcriptomic and proteomic data to study responses to oxydative stress and heavy metals.
2005 - 2005The Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) is a French government-funded technological research organisation. The main fields are: energy, health and information technologies, defense and security.
I did my master thesis at the CEA. I have modeled isozymes switches for the cyanobacteria Synechocystis in response to oxydative stresses and heavy metals.
