Franck Rodet
Pr. Franck Rodet is Professor at the University of Lille, where he has held a permanent position since September 2008 within the PRISM Laboratory (Inserm Unit 1192). He is a specialist in Cell and Molecular Biology. His research focuses on (i) the production of antibodies by neural cells, (ii) the role of extracellular vesicles to define the metastatic tropism of breast cancer cells and (iii) development of BatMass technology.
His researches have originally demonstrated that both neurons and astrocytes produce IgG, putting an end to an immunity dogma that stipulated that only LBs had the capacity to do so. Moreover, he has shown that these neural IgGs regulate neuritic sprouting and control astrocytic phenotype. It opens up new avenues of understanding of how the CNS and cognitive processes are built up and new therapeutic perspectives to treat CNS pathologies.
Pr. F. Rodet has authored 25 articles in international peer-reviewed journals with 13 articles in the Q1, 7 articles as (co-)first author, 3 articles as co-last author and 3 articles as co-corresponding author. He has an H-index: 12 and 304 citations without any autocitations. He is also the co-inventor of 2 patents for BatMass technology. He has contributed to obtaining various grants: ANR (2), I-SITE (1), Start-AIRR (2), PCSI (1). He has co-supervised 3 PhD, 14 Master 2 students and 4 Master 1 students. He has been referee for 2 PhD dissertations. He is a member of the (i) ITN “CanDoIt” dedicated to the study of breast cancer therapy, (ii) EURON network and (iii) GDR Microglia.
He is also involved in various administrative tasks as (i) co-supervisor of the Master 1 Bioinformatics Omics and Systems biology at the University of Lille, (ii) Continuing Education and Work-study Program (FCA) Coordinator at the Biology Department of the Faculty of Science and Technology (FST) at the University of Lille, (iii) elected member of the PRISM laboratory council, (iv): PRISM L2 and L3 lab manager (INSERM accreditation). He has also been (i) elected member of the Biology Department Council, (ii) committee member for the recruitment of 3 assistant professors and (iii) External evaluator for Teacher-researcher promotion campaign at the University of Lille.
