Background

About Mathilde Clement

Since 2017, MYCOPHYTO has been developing unique biosolutions to limit chemical fertilizers, reduce water stress and optimize yields. We regenerate soils using mycorrhizal fungi adapted to each territory and each crop. A biologist specialising in plant physiology, with a PhD in molecular and cellular biology from the University of Nice-Sophia Antipolis, I have worked for 15 years in various research infrastructures, institutes and laboratories in France and abroad. My research projects have focused on the adaptation of organisms (plants, insects, bacteria, etc.) to biotic or abiotic environmental constraints. In particular, this work has enabled me to develop and patent solutions to reduce the impact of phosphate deficiency on plant growth. Working for France Génomique from 2015 to 2019 as the person in charge of organising and providing information about the infrastructure, I had the opportunity to learn about high-throughput sequencing (NGS) technologies. Since October 2019, I have been in charge of the research and innovation department of the company MYCOPHYTO.
