Her current research interest is on the synthesis, reactivity and study of properties and applications of dendrimers and dendritic macromolecules in three main fields: Catalysis, Biology-Medicine, and Materials. She is the co-author of 278 publications and 25 patents. She is the coordinator or “scientist in charge” of several French and European projects, and received the bronze medal of the CNRS in 1989, and the Organic Chemistry Prize of the French Chemical Society in 2006.
