Biography

Camille Goemans is a researcher with a focus on understanding how antibiotics and non-antibiotic drugs affect diverse bacteria in the human gut microbiota, contributing to dysbiosis and antibiotic resistance. She combines systems approaches with molecular microbiology, bacterial genetics, and biochemistry. Camille obtained both her Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Biomedical Sciences from UCLouvain, Belgium, and completed her PhD at the de Duve Institute under the supervision of Prof. Jean-François Collet. Her primary research interest lies in elucidating bacterial responses to oxidative stress. After her PhD, she pursued post-doctoral studies at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) with an EMBO post-doctoral fellowship in the laboratory of Dr. Nassos Typas, developing expertise in systems biology related to the impact of antibiotics on the human gut microbiota. Her work has been published in top-tier journals and highlighted in both national and international press. Camille has received numerous prestigious awards for her research, including the FNRS Yourassowsky Award for her PhD thesis in 2020, the Christiane Nusslein-Volhard Foundation Award in 2019, and the 2020 L'Oréal/UNESCO Women in Science Award in Germany.
