As part of our upcoming departmental seminar, we are pleased to welcome Dr. S\u00e9bastien Zappa, Research Scientist at Yves Brun’s Laboratory. The seminar will take place on Thursday, from 11:30 to 12:30, in room N833. The presentation will be delivered in English. <\/p>\n

Dr. Zppa’s research focuses on bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation, with particular emphasis on polar adhesion mechanisms in Alphaproteobacteria. His work integrates bacterial genetics, phenotypic characterization, and functional genomics to better understand the molecular basis of surface attachment. You <\/p>\n

will find below the summary of his presentation.<\/p>\n
