Kader Thiam, Ph.D.
Vice President Transgenic Technologies
|
Dr. Kader Thiam received a Ph.D. for his work at the department of Cellular Immunology of the Pasteur Institute, Lille. Then he was a fellow at The Pasteur Institute, Lille, Department of Peptide Chemistry. His work was focused on the regulation of the immune response by the use of recombinant viruses or synthetic agonist of cytokine and on the cytoplasm delivery of lipopeptides to modulate pharmacological targets.

Dr Thiam joined genOway in 1999 as Scientific Consultant and Head of the Immunology Department. Today, Dr Thiam serves the company as Vice President of Transgenic Technologies, driving the R&D programs aiming at developing new alternatives to overcome transgenesis limitations. His work allowed the company to patent 4 innovative technologies in genetic engineering field, some of them using RNAi gene knock down, and 3 proprietary animal models in immunology field.

genOway is a service provider dedicated to the development of tailor-made transgenic mouse and rat models.
With 54 full-time employees and operating in 22 countries in Europe, North America and Asia, genOway is the largest company in its field in Europe, both in terms of employees and clients.
genOway’s technology platform comprises technologies classically used in transgenesis combined with conditional and exclusive inducible systems. In addition, innovative proprietary technologies enable subsequent experimental steps in your research programs to be anticipated. genOway has patented several innovative strategies based on the design of evolving animal models to anticipate subsequent experimental steps: theses approaches enables different mouse models to be generated starting from a unique mouse model. This approach is time-saving and cost effective.
 |
genOway has established a close partnership with Invitrogen to provide a complete services platform for the in vivo use of the RNAi technology: from the design and validation of the shRNA to in vivo gene knockdown. Our services are 100 % customized: you may subcontract the entire model development or only part of it to genOway. |
