  • Membre du International Research Program CHOROID-RP. France. Avec mes collègues Fabien Pifferi (France) et Benoit Laurent (Université de Sherbrooke), nous avons déposé une demande au CNRS pour former un laboratoire International de recherche. Cette reconnaissances par le CNRS nous donnera un financement annuel d'environ 15 000 euros par ans sur 5 ans pour financer des déplacements et des projets pilotes entre nos équipes. Nous avons déposé la demande en mars 2020 cependant, avec la crise mondiale du COVID-19, nous n'avons toujours pas reçu l'acceptation de notre demande.
