JPK
Instruments, a world-leading manufacturer of nanoanalytic instrumentation
for research in life sciences and soft materials, has opened their first sales
offices in France to support their growing user base.
As JPK continues to offer better applications and service support to its users,
the company has decided to open an office in France. They have appointed Dr.
Anne Duprat as sales manager to run the offices in the rue de Rennes in the
centre of Paris.
Dr. Duprat comes with extensive experience in world of scanning probe microscopy,
SPM. She graduated with a first degree in cellular and molecular biology from
Luminy Marseilles University before completing her PhD in the CEA of Cadarache.
Her research focused on translation initiation. She also held a post doctoral
position in molecular biology and genetics at CNB Madrid. In looking forward
to working with JPK, Dr. Duprat says "I have been very impressed with the
quality and robustness of instruments provided by JPK. I like the way they have
developed such a dedicated product line where they have looked at the experimental
needs of life scientists. Furthermore, I have been working with the JPK Team
for over five years and I have experienced their excellent applications support
first hand."
Dr. Gerd Behme, JPK's General Sales Manager commented, "Having worked
with Anne as a member of our former distributors, LOT-Oriel, I know that she
will bring excellent experience of the needs of customers in France. The French
market for nanotechnology solutions in the life sciences continues to grow and
we realise it was time to open our own offices to be more responsive to local
needs."
The opening of the French office continues JPK's mission to provide top levels
of support to users worldwide. This follows the opening of offices in the UK,
Japan and Singapore in the last two years.
