Postdoctoral Fellow, Human Sleep Research Program
Marie Gombert joined SRI in 2022 as a postdoctoral researcher. She works on several NIH-funded projects to better understand the importance of biological rhythms and sleep in human health. Her interests are particularly the menstrual variations in woman’s physiology, and also in how the socioeconomic context of individuals shape their life habits and health.
Gombert has a background in Biochemistry, a MSc in Digestive Health and Nutrition, and a PhD from the Univeritat de Valencia (Spain), on “Life habits, circadian rhythms and metabolic health in the context of childhood obesity”, was obtained with international mention thanks to collaborations with both La Rochelle Université (France), and University of Colorado Boulder (USA).
