His current research activity concerns the synthesis of biologically active molecules in the fields of cancer, viral pathologies and neurodegenerative diseases, through academic and industrial collaborations. He is also strongly involved in the understanding of biological mechanisms through the synthesis of molecules labeled by non-radioactive isotopes.
