About the Author:

Dr. Djamel Drider is currently an associate professor of Microbiology at Nantes-Atlantic National College of Veterinary Medicine, Food Science and Engineering-ONIRIS. He obtained his PhD from Ecole Nationale Supérieure Agronomique de Montpellier (France) and completed his post-doc at Centro de Investigaciones Biológicas (Madrid, Spain) and Mount Sinai School of Medicine at New York University. Dr. Drider is currently a member of the editorial board of the journal, Probiotics and Antimicrobial Proteins and Chairman of the French Antimicrobial Peptides Society.

Professor Sylvie Rebuffat is the Director of the Laboratory Communication Molecules and Adaptation of Microorganisms at the National Museum of Natural History in Paris, France. She researches antimicrobial peptides of bacterial origin (microcins, bacteriocins), focusing mainly on their mechanisms of action, structure/activity relationships, and biosynthetic pathways. Dr. Rebuffat is also the Scientific Advisor to the Director of the National Museum of Natural History.
