معرفی
Stéphanie DEGOUTIN is an Associate Professor at the University of Lille, holding a faculty position in the Department of Materials at Polytech Lille. She conducts research within the Materials and Transformations Unit (UMET, CNRS UMR 8207), specifically in the Polymer Systems Engineering team. Her office is located in Building C6, Room 115 on the Science Campus in Villeneuve d'Ascq, France, where she contributes to both academic instruction and advanced materials research.
Her research spans Polymer Engineering and Biomaterials with emphasis on electrospun nanofibers for biomedical applications. Key interests include wound healing membranes, vascular stent coatings, and abdominal meshes with anticoagulant and antibacterial properties, alongside environmental remediation through heavy metal adsorbents. She specializes in synthesizing mesoporous hybrid materials and functional polymers using cyclodextrin-chitosan systems, plasma treatments, and controlled drug release kinetics for health and sustainability challenges.
Analysis of her 15 most recent publications (2017-2025) shows consistent focus on electrospinning techniques for nanofiber-based solutions. Biomedical work dominates with 11 articles on wound dressings, stents, and surgical meshes incorporating drugs like simvastatin and ropivacaine, while environmental studies (4 articles) address water decontamination via modified silica adsorbents. Her research bridges polymer chemistry, materials engineering, and biological testing with strong interdisciplinary collaboration.

Professor DEGOUTIN actively supervises PhD students, currently advising Zahra JAMAL (2024) on biosourced food packaging. She has co-directed eight doctoral theses including Liam AYADEN (2024) on chronic wound membranes, Malo DUFAY (2021) on plasma-functionalized implants, and Dyhia KERSANI (2019) on vascular stent coatings. Her students' work targets biomedical applications of electrospun materials with industry-focused outcomes like R&D roles at Macopharma and Cousin Biotech.
She operates within UMET's Polymer Systems Engineering team, leveraging the unit's advanced resources including the PMEL Electron Microscopy Platform and FireResist facility. Her experimental work integrates high-pressure systems, material characterization tools, and collaborative networks across France and internationally, particularly in drug delivery and environmental material design.
