• Eric Demoncheaux's profile

    • What I do

      I entered into the field of nitric oxide chemistry and biology when I started my PhD in Cambridge under the supervision of Tim Higenbottam, Ed Constable and Mike Davies.
      After a year of National Service in France, I moved to Sheffield where I designed and conducted various studies including patients with pulmonary hypertension and portal hypertension where the L-arginine/NO pathway plays a critical role in the aetiology and management of these conditions.
      After a short spell at CERN to learn about the world famous bubble chambers, I now teach Science at Battle Abbey School.
      I am still working as Consultant in the field of NO research and am Club NO France’s webmaster.
      I also work as Consultant for Futurelab and have recently helped design a new interactive game to enhance visits to London Science Museum.
      Finally, I am a Council member of Au Pas de Cal’Ane which is an Association aiming to help re-insertion of youngsters with special needs using pioneering therapeutic techniques.
