Gregory Lavieu 

G. Lavieu is a cell biologist/biochemist expert in membrane trafficking. G. Lavieu is currently an INSERM permanent investigator, at the head of the ERL U1316, and “Chaire d’ Excellence” at Université Paris Cité, within the  UMR7057 Research Unit. Previously, he identified and characterized a new mode of intra-Golgi transport, termed Rim progression, dedicated to oversized proteins that are too large to fit into classical transport vesicles. More recently, G. Lavieu and his research group aim at characterizing the intercellular transport mediated by extracellular vesicles (exosomes), at both cellular and molecular levels. Our goal is to identify the  core machinery controlling this process.
