معرفی
Océane Martin is a Lecturer in Clinical Microbiology at the University of Bordeaux, where she conducts her research at the Institute of Cellular Biochemistry and Genetics, a joint unit of CNRS and the university. Her work bridges clinical microbiology, oncology, and nutritional sciences.
Research Interests:
Océane Martin specializes in the role of the microbiota in cancer development, particularly focusing on:
- Links between processed meat consumption, nitrites/nitrates, and colorectal cancer.
- The role of pathogenic bacteria like Helicobacter pylori and Salmonella in gastric and colorectal cancers.
- The gut-brain axis in glioblastoma, including how the microbiota influences tumor progression and therapeutic resistance through the GLIOBIOTA project.
- Intratumoral microbiota in brain tumors and their functional implications.
Publication Trends:
Her recent publications reflect a strong focus on bacterial genotoxins, DNA damage responses, host immune modulation, and dietary factors in carcinogenesis. Her work integrates molecular microbiology with immunology and cancer biology, often using in vivo models to study host-pathogen dynamics.
Scientific Contributions:
- Member of ANSES working group (2020–2022) on nitrite salts in food.
- Invited expert at the French National Assembly on nitrite-related health risks.
- Regular contributor to public science communication via The Conversation and national media.
Advising and Grants:
While no formal students are listed, her leadership in the GLIOBIOTA project suggests active mentorship and grant-funded research. Her involvement in national expert panels and interdisciplinary projects indicates sustained funding and collaborative research networks.
Labs and Teams:
She conducts research at the Institute of Cellular Biochemistry and Genetics (University of Bordeaux / CNRS), contributing to teams focused on infection biology, microbiota, and cancer. Her work aligns with translational research initiatives linking diet, microbiology, and oncology.
