Since 2014, Dr. Fatma Driss is an assistant professor at Laboratory of Biopesticides, Centre of Biotechnology of Sfax, Tunisia. She got the DEA and the Ph.D. degrees from the “Ecole Nationale d’Ingénieurs de Sfax”. Her thesis work was on the chitinolytic activities of the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis widely used for the biological control. During the thesis work, she was supervised by Professors Samir Jaoua and Nabil Zouari. She was granted by “The Third Academy of Sciences” (Twas) during a run time of 18 months for an international project entitled “Study and use of endogenous chitinases of Bacillus thuringiensis for improvement of its insecticidal activities”. Dr. Fatma carried out two post-doctoral research works: the first within the Biopesticides team of the “Laboratoire de Protection et Amélioration des Plantes” - Centre of Biotechnology of Sfax (2008-2011); the second at “Centro de Investigação em Recursos Naturais - Universidade dos Açores” (CIRN), Portugal (2011-2013), with a fellowship from “Fundo Regional para a Ciência e Tecnologia” (FRCT), and under the supervision of Prof. Nelson Simões.
