About
Fabien Dalonneau is a leading figure in the development of advanced biomimetic interfaces for high-throughput cell biology. His research centers on the intersection of materials science and cellular engineering, with a particular focus on automated layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly. Dalonneau’s most notable contribution, his 2018 paper on "Automated Buildup of Biomimetic Films in Cell Culture Microplates," has garnered 44 citations and established a transformative method for creating highly homogeneous, biomimetic coatings. By adapting a commercial liquid-handling robot for LbL deposition, he enabled the rapid, reproducible fabrication of thin films directly at the bottom of microplate wells. This innovation eliminates manual variability and opens the door to systematic, high-throughput screening of cellular behaviors—such as adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation—on tailored extracellular matrix-like surfaces. His work directly addresses a critical bottleneck in cell-based assays, bridging the gap between biomimetic material design and scalable, automated experimentation. Dalonneau’s achievements have significant implications for drug discovery, tissue engineering, and fundamental cell biology, providing researchers with a powerful, standardized tool to probe cell–material interactions at unprecedented scale.
