After a scientific baccalaureate obtained in Algiers, Khaled Tighanimine moved to France to pursue his higher education (bachelor - masters) in biology at the Sorbonne University. He first worked on the role of non-coding RNAs on the spatial conformation of Escherichia coli nucleoids at the Collège de France within the Olivier Espéli's team. He then joined Mario Pende's team at the Institut Necker Enfants Malades to complete his doctorate on the metabolism of senescent cells, which he successfully defended in November 2023. He is mainly interested in lipid and polar metabolism in health and disease.
