Biographical Sketch: Nabila Haddad is a young researcher in the Food Safety and Microbiology Unit (UMR1014 INRA SECALIM), in Nantes. After studying microbial ecology at Claude Bernard University of Lyon (2006), she defended her thesis on involvement of ribonucleases in virulence and stress survival of the foodborne pathogen Campylobacter jejuni, in the Veterinary School of Nantes (2010). During one year of postdoctoral fellow, she pursued her work on implication of ribonucleases in Campylobacter virulence by collaborating with the Prof. C. Arraiano, of Control of Gene Expression lab (Oeiras, Portugal). Since September 2011, she is an assistant professor in microbial food safety and microbial engineering at the National College of Veterinary Medicine, Food Science and Engineering (Nantes). Her research interests include deciphering Campylobacter behavior to stress encounters in food environment (via Omics approaches) and the fight of this pathogen by selecting exclusion probiotics.
