Biography

Annie Viallat is engineer of Ecole Polytechnique (Paris, France). She received her PhD in Physics from the University of Grenoble (France) in 1987, working on polymer gels and NMR. After a theoretical postdoctoral work on conjugated polymers in the Materials Departments (UC Santa Barbara), she joined the Spectrométrie Physique lab (Grenoble) in 1989, studying polymer gels and heterogeneous polymer solutions. Her research moved to biological physics in 1999. Since 2005, she is a group leader in Marseille (France). She works in The Interdisciplinary Center for Nanosciences (CINaM). She is interested in the dynamics in microflows of vesicles and blood cells. Her recent work focuses on the dynamics of red and white blood cells in shear flow and in biomimicking capillary networks. She is currently working on RBC mechanical properties and margination phenomenon in sickle cell anemia and on RBC elimination in the spleen.
