There, she established a world-class team focused on expanding industry and academic collaborations in the field of microbiome research that resulted in raising more than $20M of financial support through key partnerships toward application of this science to AI, diet and nutrition, aging, environment, human disease understanding and more. Before this three-year detour in academia, she worked in large biotech and multinational companies in the life science industry, as well as start-ups. She has assumed different responsibilities from R&D director to leading sales and marketing organizations. She excels at preparing companies for successful exits as shown by her work at Helixis, acquired by Illumina, and MO BIO Labs acquired by QIAGEN. A scientist at heart and with a drive to bring life-changing innovation to the masses, Sandrine has found her passion in leading Micronoma, committed to improving the lives of all involved in cancer diagnosis.
