CEDANO-SERRANO Yvette TRAN, Dominique HOURDET and Costantino CRETON May 13th, 2019 Acknowledgments At the end of this doctoral thesis. I would like to express my gratitude to all the different people who have encouraged and supported me during these years. I would like to start by acknowledging my principal supervisor Costantino. First, for gave me his confidence and his guidance during my PhD, but also his friendship during these years. I am also very grateful to Dominique and Yvette. I admire them very much and I greatly appreciate the discussions and all their academic and non-academic advices during these 3 years. I believe the three of them form an excellent team of supervisors that can guide several PhD students in different areas of research in the SIMM lab at ESPCI. During my dissertation, it was an honour for me to have professor Mark Geoghegan, Frederic Restagno, Anke Linder and Arancha del Campo as members of the jury in the dissertation of my doctoral thesis. Thank you very much for accepting to review my thesis and for the valuable discussion during this. In particular, thanks to professors Frédéric and Mark for accepting to write the respective report of the manuscript and for Anke to be president of the jury committee. I would like to thank all the members of the BioSmartTrainee network. This innovative training network led by Alla Synytska in Dresden, gave me the opportunity to pursue a PhD in a unique environment of fantastic collaboration and outstanding scientific and soft skills training in the field of adhesion science. As a fellow researcher in this network, I was able to collaborate with remarkable researchers and to share memorable experiences during these years. I would like to thank professors Marleen Kamperman and Alla Synytska, since the conclusions of this doctorate would not be the same if it were not for our collaborations. I want to highlight the ESRs Marco Dompé, Ugo Sidoli and Mehdi Vahdati with who I had the honour of working together and shared treasured moments. I also want to thank the long and valuable discussions with Victor Kang, Justine Tavera, Dimitris Mintis and Maria Villou, and also the rest of the ESRs, Aurelie Feat, Vaishali Chopra and Maciej Chudak. During the preparation of this manuscript and my PhD, I have been help by many. I am particularly grateful to my friends in the lab; Robert Gurney, Pierre Millereau, Jingwen Zhao, Helen Minsky and Gabriel Sanoja who made valuable comments for improving my scientific writing and oral presentations skills. I want to thank all of them as well for their friendship and for making my life easier and more enjoyable inside and outside ESPCI. I would like to thank all the permanents in SIMM Lab and all the students and postdocs for their friendship, discussions, help, encouragements, and more important, for all the football and tennis games. Especially, I want to thank, Bruno, Valentine, Paul E., Paul F., Cécile M, Cécile C, Antoine F., Giorgia, Cyprian, Pascal, Anne-Charlotte, Juliette, Nassim, Xavier, Melanie, Milena, Julien, Louis, Yinjun, Josh, Ekkchai… I want to thank my friends outside the lab. The Parisian group; Madda, Pekka, Connie and Sibell, and also my Colombian friends; Susana, Diana, Coloso, Juan, Manu, Juli, and Harry. Thank you for enriching my life with unforgettable moments during these years. I want to thank my parents and my family for their loving and continuous support during my PhD. Above all I want to thank Leonie for all the hours she dedicated to listen to all my excited stories of underwater glues and for her loving and constant support during our time together, especially during the days of writing the manuscript.
