A clinician and a scientist, Dr. Berteau is a biomechanician who applies his expertise in biomedical engineering to improve clinical practices within the field of musculoskeletal sciences. His research delves into the critical relationship between biological composition and mechanical behavior of bones, with a specific emphasis on biomaterials and the genetic control of mineralization. He leads an interdisciplinary team dedicated to applying these insights to improve health outcomes. Their published work spans a wide range of topics, from theoretical models of mineralization to experimental studies on bone biomechanics in animal models and clinical reviews.
Dr. Berteau has a passion for teaching physiology, evidence-based practice, and musculoskeletal imaging. Committed to fostering international scientific collaboration, he is a co-founder of the annual Bone and Orthopedics Interdisciplinary Symposium (BONITOS) and serves as Treasurer for D-Fi, the French scientists' diaspora network in the U.S. He also promotes diversity and the responsible use of AI in academia as a CUNY Fellow and a Building Bridges of Knowledge Fellow for Lumina Foundation, and engages in local, national, and global collaborations with universities such as TCNJ, USC San Diego, U Lyon (France), and U Tlemcen (Algeria).
