Nathalie Picollet-D’hahan received her Doctorat in Biophysics and Pharmacology from Institut Paris-Grignon (INAPG) in 1997. After 2 years post-doctoral fellowship in electrophysiology at the CEA Grenoble (1997-2000), she founded a start-up in Multi-Electrode arrays (MEA). In 2002, she obtained a permanent position at the CEA in Grenoble and was involved in the newly created “Biochip” Lab and in charge of developing ‘cell-on-chip’ devices in collaboration with LETI. Since 2009, she is the head of a research group within “Biomics team” focused on 3D prostate organoids, organs-on-chip devices and 3D bioprinted models. She is involved in 3D cell biology and Cancer research and has experience in designing and supervising technological developments for biology. She organized international INSERM workshops on “3D cell culture” in 2014 and on “Organ-on-Chip” in 2018, is authored or co-authored of about 25 publications in the field of 3D organoids culture and cell-on-chip and is co-inventor of 8 patents. She is active member of ORCHID consortium and in charge of conceiving and developing the Digital Platform and the EUROoCS website architecture.
