+"My training as a researcher started with developmental genetics in "
+"drosophila and zebrafish, where I studied the activity of transcription "
+"enhancers (Blader et al., 2003) and their evolutionary conservation (Plessy "
+"et al., 2005). This gave me a strong interest for whole-transcriptome "
+"analysis and technology. For that purpose, I have joined RIKEN in 2004, "
+"where have worked on high-throughput methods for profiling promoters and "
+"inferring gene networks, and in particular on CAGE (Cap Analysis Gene "
+"Expression)."

+"I have developed a miniaturized version of CAGE, termed nanoCAGE, to analyse "
+"small samples yielding only nanograms of RNA (Plessy et al., 2010). In the "
+"same manuscript, we also introduced its paired-end variant, CAGEscan, which "
+"we use to associate novel promoters with annotations. Since then, we have "
+"kept improving or expanding these techniques, by updating the protocol "
+"(Salimullah et al., 2011), reducing the sequence bias introduced by the "
+"molecular barcodes (Tang et al., 2013), combining multiple cap-enrichment "
+"steps (Batut et al., 2013), benchmarking the use of locked nucleic acids for "
+"template switching (Harbers et al., 2013), and reducing the number of primer "
+"artefacts and unwanted sequences generated by ribosomal RNAs using "
+"low-complexity “pseudo-random” reverse-transcription primers (Arnaud et al., "
+"2016)."

+"On April 2013, I started a new development cycle as the leader of the "
+"Genomics Miniaturization Technology Unit at RIKEN Center for Life Sciences, "
+"Division of Genomics Technology, to expand this work on single cells "
+"following a population transcriptomics approach (Plessy et al., 2013) "
+"focused on sampling the largest possible number of cells. In our ongoing "
+"developments, we have reached single-cell and single molecule resolution "
+"through the introduction of transposase fragmentation and unique molecular "
+"identifiers (Poulain et al., 2017). The protocol exists in two versions, one "
+"for FACS-isolated cells, and one for the Fluidigm C1 platform (Kouno et al., "
+"2019)."

+"I have complemented my work on CAGE with the development of a gene-centred "
+"technique for detecting promoters, termed Deep-RACE (Olivarius et al., 2009, "
+"Plessy et al., 2012), which we used to validate our discovery of the "
+"pervasive expression of retrotransposons detected by CAGE (Faulkner et al., "
+"2009). To study transcription start activity at nucleotide resolution in "
+"zebrafish transfected with chimeric transgenes containing a copy of an "
+"endogenous promoter, I combined Deep-RACE, CAGE and paired-end sequencing in "
+"a technology that we called “Single-Locus CAGE” (Haberle et al., 2014). With "
+"my contributions related to CAGE development and analysis, I have been a "
+"member of the FANTOM consortium since FANTOM3."

+"Together with my colleagues at RIKEN and collaborators in the field of "
+"neuroscience, I have applied nanoCAGE to the study of single neuron cell "
+"types, for instance the olfactory neurons (Plessy et al., 2012), or in "
+"dopaminergic cells, where we could demonstrate the expression of haemoglobin "
+"in the midbrain (Biagioli et al., 2009). We are also exploring the "
+"sub-cellular localisation of RNA in Purkinje neurons (Kratz et al., 2014), "
+"and neurogenesis in the mouse olfactory epithelium using single-cell CAGE "
+"and ATAC-seq techniques. In parallel with this promoter-centric work, I have "
+"also explored the huge repertoire of the T cell antigen receptors."

+"I joined OIST in 2018, to study the genetic structure and population "

+"chromosomal resolution many individual sampled from all over the World."
