Baptiste Legrand received his PhD in life sciences and health (structural biology) from the University of Rennes 1 in 2009 and moved for a two-years postdoctoral fellowship at the Laboratory of Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics (LCPM, Nancy) working on the characterization of foldamer structures combining various techniques (NMR, CD and FTIR spectroscopies, and Molecular Dynamics). He joined the IBMM in 2012. His research is devoted to the development of rationally designed architectures in the field of health and catalysis. He is interested in the determination of three-dimensional structures, deciphering the mechanisms that govern the folding and stability of complex edifices at the atomic scale, and peptide self-assemblies. The main applications concern the development of antimicrobials and protein-protein interaction inhibitors. Since September 2023, Baptiste has been an elected member of the French Peptides and Proteins Group (GFPP, https://www.gfpp.fr/en/home/). https://www.linkedin.com/in/baptiste-legrand-bb15632a0/
