Prof. Leslie Boudesocque Delaye
Synthèse et Isolement de Molécules BioActives , France
Leslie Boudesocque Delaye graduated from the Faculté de Pharmacie de Reims Champagne-Ardenne in 2008 with a PharmD. She completed her PhD on Centrifugal Partition Chromatography purification processes for natural peptides under the supervision of Pr JH Renault in 2010. ##MORE## Her thesis received the Prix de la Chancellerie de Reims and won the Crafty Chromatographer Award at the CounterCurrent Chromatography conference in Lyon (2010). After completing a post-doctorate at Lonza (Viège, Switzerland) in 2011, she joined the University of Tours as a lecturer. In 2021, she will be promoted to full professor within the SIMBA laboratory (EA 7502). Her research focuses on the development of innovative eco-designed processes for the access to metabolites of biological interest from plant or microalgal biomass. She has extensive expertise in the design of natural eutectic solvents for cosmetic applications, both for preparing ingredients and finished products. Pr Boudesocque-Delaye's lab is also developing innovative separation strategies using Centrifugal Partition Chromatography and High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC).
