I am Jacques Fattaccioli, Associate Professor in Chemistry. I am part of the MesoBioLab team within the CPCV Laboratory at **École Normale Supérieure (ENS-PSL), Department of Chemistry (Paris, France)**. My work sits at the interface of microfluidics, soft matter, biophysics, and immunology, with a strong emphasis on droplet-based microfluidic systems. We design microfluidic platforms and surface/interface strategies to generate and functionalize droplets, control microscale environments, and build quantitative experiments that connect physico-chemical principles to biologically relevant questions.
Our research focuses on microfluidic engineering and droplet technologies for quantitative bio-physical chemistry, including the controlled manipulation of droplets, interfaces, particles, and cells. A key direction is the development of microfluidic approaches for immunology, where droplet microcompartments and tailored surface chemistries enable precise control of biochemical conditions and cell–interface interactions for single-cell and high-throughput assays.
I teach at the Bachelor and Master level in chemistry and related disciplines, with a strong emphasis on hands-on quantitative skills:
- Python programming for science and chemistry
- Image analysis and quantitative data analysis
- Microscopy (experimental practice and data extraction)
- Microfluidics and microfabrication (Master level in Chemistry)
I am in charge of the Microfluidics and Miniaturization Master: https://microfluidics-master.fr/
In addition to university teaching, I develop and deliver lifelong learning and professional training programs in microfluidics, tailored to R&D teams.
I am co-founder and scientific advisor of Quintessence Biotech, a startup born from our laboratory’s patent portfolio. Quintessence Biotech develops innovative microfluidic and physico-chemical solutions for Cell and Gene Therapies, with the objective of translating academic research into robust and scalable technologies for biomedical applications.
This activity is part of a broader commitment to technology transfer and innovation, bridging fundamental research, engineering, and real-world therapeutic challenges.
