Biography
Pierre Falson got his PhD at the LYON University. He is a CNRS (National Centre for Scientific Research) Research Director, enzymologist and membrane proteins biochemist, co-leading the Drug resistance mechanism and modulation team in the BMSSI CNRS-UCBL1 Research Unit. PFhas published 54 publications, patented 6 inventions and licensed2 to CALIXAR, a startup which he co-founded. He was awarded in 1991 by the Maurice Nicloux prize from the French Society of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, in 2010 and 2011 by the “National competition of innovative start-ups” and by the Innovation and Transfer Technology prize from theCNRS.
Research Interest
The “Drug Resistance Mechanism and Modulation” group is studying the molecular and cellular mechanism of multidrug ABC (“ATP-binding cassette”) transporters which are responsible for cellular resistance to multiple chemotherapeutics.

Biography
Shoujun Xu obtained his PhD in Chemistry from the Johns Hopkins University and received Post-doctoral training in Caltech and University of California at Berkeley. His expertise includes magnetic detection, spectroscopy and technology development. He invented the force-induced remnant magnetization spectroscopy (FIRMS) technique. Its high force resolution has enabled a wide range of applications in biochemical research. Multiple papers on prestigious scientific journals have been produced, and several patents have been either awarded or pending.
Research Interest
Dr. Shoujun Xu's research focuses on developing various magnetic-based techniques for molecular and cellular imaging and magnetic resonance imaging. The following is a list of research themes we are currently pursuing. This list will be updated upon the invention of new technologies like Force-Induced Remnant Magnetization spectroscopy (FIRMS), Scanning Magnetic Imaging (SMI), Laser-Detected Magnetic Resonance Imaging (LD MRI) and Atomic Magnetometry (AM)
