Welcome

Hello! My name is Benoît Aliaga and I am a passionate PhD in Epigenetics at the University of Perpignan, in Southern France. And deaf. Totally deaf when my cochlear implant runs out of battery.

It would have been easier to give up and become a baker, as someone suggested me once, but thanks to my determination (call it stubbornness if you prefer), I currently hold a Master’s in Environmental Genomics and a PhD in epigenetics. If you are curious, you can read my whole history.

I created this website in order to share my passion for Epigenetics and Biology in general and, why not, cast some light on the difficulties of deaf students and scientists, which are still quite unknown.

By the way, I am actively looking for a post-doc position. If you have a project or a vacancy, let me hear about it ;-)
