Bibliographical sketch:

Christophe Frédéric received his Master degree in Chemistry with specialization in BioOrganic Chemistry from the University of Namur in 2014. During that master, he realized an Internship (6 months) in the TSU Infectious Disease at the company Sanofi R&D in Toulouse under the supervision of Dr. A. Froidbise. He then started his doctoral studies about ‘’Multistep synthesis of functionalized exocyclic enol ethers derived from carbohydrates as potential antitubercular agents’’ in the Bio-Organic chemistry laboratory directed by Ph. Stéphane Vincent.

He obtained his PhD in December 19th, 2018.
