He firstly reported several new organic chemical reactions for the exoheral modification of nanotubes like the attachment of radicals or nitrenes and participated to further functionalization methods like the cycloaddition of azomethineylides. His pioneering work contributed to a better processability of this exeptional material.His research interest is focused on the development of biosensors and biofuel cells based on functionalized nanomaterials.He received the researcher award of the Analytical Chemistry Division of the French Chemical Society (SCF) in 2013 where he also was elected distinguished junior member.
