Mikaël Salson is an Associate Professor at Université de Lille, affiliated with the CRIStAL Laboratory and the Bonsai research group. His work focuses on sequence bioinformatics, including sequence indexing and alignment-free comparisons, with contributions to software like CREMSA and Vidjil. He teaches courses in bioinformatics, algorithms, and skeptical thinking across various academic levels. His research emphasizes genomic data analysis and computational methods for high-throughput sequencing. Notably, he has supervised PhD students such as T. Rocher and T. Baudeau, and co-authored studies on topics like V(D)J recombination and RNA-seq analysis.
Salson’s research also involves collaborations with institutions like CNRS and non-profit organizations such as VidjilNet. His work on scientific integrity includes critiques of industry lobbying in environmental and health sciences, as highlighted in his 2020 article analyzing the French Association for Scientific Information (AFIS). Conflicts of interest include limited collaborations with companies like Novartis and SeqOne, which were publicly funded and disclosed.
