Maxime Dahan

Publié le 1 August 2018

It is with deep sorrow that we have learned of Maxime Dahan’s death on July 30th. His sudden death is a choc and the brutality of his disappearance affects all the members of Alvéole’s team.

Maxime held a special place in Alvéole’s history. On the scientific side, his work on cell handling in microfluidic environment in collaboration with Vincent Studer (researcher at the Bordeaux Institute) led to patent applications. With the help of the company builder called Quattrocento, he was then involved in the creation of the start-up Alvéole in 2011.

Alvéole’s team recently collaborated with him on his new research work on functionalized magnetic nanoparticles.

We wish to convey our deepest and most sincere condolences to Maxime’s family and friends.
