Corinne Ledger 🇫🇷, Secretary
I joined Institut de Science et d’Ingénierie Supramoléculaires (ISIS) in 2014. Today I am the group assistant of 3 research teams.
I did my BA degree in Human Resources part time (evenings) while working at the Airbus headquarters in Toulouse as a Personal Assistant and carrying out projects in Human Resources.
Quentin Combe 🇫🇷, Assistant Engineer
Postdoctoral Researchers
Dr. Jules Simonin Garcia 🇫🇷
Dr. Ranajit Barman 🇮🇳
I obtained my PhD in 2022 under the supervision of Professor Suhrit Ghosh from the Indian Association for the cultivation of Science, Kolkata, India. During my PhD I worked on the synthesis and self-assembly of functional polyurethanes for biological applications. Since November, 2023 I am working as a postdoctoral researcher in this group. My research interest includes synthesis of information encoded macromolecules and data storage in 2D and 3D organization of digital polymers utilising layer-by-layer deposition procedures.
PhD Candidates
Ala Covas 🇲🇩
I come from the Republic of Moldova. I moved to Strasbourg in 2018 to complete my Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry at the University of Strasbourg. Then, I continued with the Chemistry, Biology, and Medicine Master’s program at the same university.
In 2023, I started my PhD with Dr. Jean François Lutz’s team. My research focuses on synthesis of sequence-defined polymers and exploring their interactions with ionic liquids. The PhD is part of Funambulist, an EIC project.
Georgette Obeid 🇱🇧
I come from Halba, a small town in the north of Lebanon. I studied chemistry and received my bachelor’s degree from the Lebanese University. I was then awarded the CSC graduate school scholarship from the University of Strasbourg, where I obtained my Master’s degree. I joined Lutz Lab for my Master 2 internship, and I have continued in the lab to pursue a Ph.D. focusing on synthesizing poly(phosphodiester)s for data storage applications, aiming to sequence these polymers by nanopore technology. My Ph.D. is part of the 01Pores project, funded by ANR and the Swiss National Science Foundation.
Aymeric Nicolas 🇫🇷
Originally from the South-East of France in Carpentras, I am today an Organic and Molecular Chemistry Engineer. Indeed, after three years of « Classes Préparatoires aux Grandes Écoles (CPGE) » I was able to join the European School of Chemistry (ECPM) in Strasbourg where I specialized in Organic and Molecular Chemistry while following a dual degree (Master) in Supramolecular Chemistry at the University of Strasbourg.
Since September 2024, I have been working on digital data storage at the molecular scale as a PhD student under the supervision of J.F. Lutz from ISIS and J.F. Nierengarten from LIMA
