SCIENTIFIC DISTRIBUTION ACTIVITIES
Peer reviewing scientific papers activity is part of our jobs. The journals for which I conducted this reviewing activity: PloS ONE, Molecular and Cellular Biology, Chemosphere, reproductive toxicology, Toxicological Sciences , Environmental Science and Technology, Endocrinology and more recently Scientific Reports.
I participated in reviewing of Barbara Demeneix's book Losing our Minds published by Oxford press in July 2014.

EXPERTISE
I made the request to participate as an expert in the drafting and proofreading of ANSES (french EFSA) reports. I have been awarded the rank of competent personality on endocrine disruptors by ANSES but have not yet been solicited to participate in working meetings on the subject.
I am one of several think tanks in the OECD.

I belong to the "Thyroid scoping group" working group and participated in the drafting of the in vitroidentification and ratification tests book published on the OECD website in 2013. I attend meetings of the VMG-Non Animal testing working group on the search for alternative tests.

I attend and participate in meetings of the VMG -Eco working group on tests including aquatic larvae for the detection of endocrine disruptors.

RESPONSIBILITIES AND ACTIVITIES
I now supervise a group of 5 personsin the subgroup “endocrine disruptors” within Prof Demeneix team. I supervise two PhD students (Belgium and Pakistani) and a post doc (Czeck).
