IMBE's research is structured around 5 transversal thematic axis and 8 research teams
IMBE organizes its operational facilities around 5 technical departments
Training is, of course, the courses offered at the University (L, M, D) but also training through research (internships).
The dissemination of our scientific results is at the heart of our mission: it enables us to share and make research advances accessible to a wider audience. In addition to publications in specialist journals, the IMBE deploys a wide range of resources to popularise knowledge and make it understandable and attractive to a wide range of audiences. Through concrete actions and innovative tools, we are committed to bringing science closer to everyone, in order to establish an ongoing dialogue between science, research and the general public, especially young people.
I have taught analytical chemistry (separative methods, spectral methods, electrochemical methods) throughout my teaching career at the IUT in Marseille.
My research interests have focused on the application of analytical chemistry to the study of natural products:
The aim of the research into oilseed products is to chemically characterise the varieties studied in order to determine their varietal and geographical origins. The data is used in the search for adulterated agri-food products: olive oil, walnut oil and sweet almond oil (in progress).
Projects in progress:
Chemical characterisation of Provence almond varieties (Ferragnès, Ferraduel, Lauranne, Mandaline...) with a view to creating a PGI (Collaboration Dr Yveline Le dréau, Dr Catherine Rébufa)
Research into old olive varieties in the south of France (France Olive collaboration, Mr Christian Pinatel)
Study of olive oil filtration on new membranes
