Dr. Anne-Claire Texier was born in Barbezieux, Charente, France, in October 1973. Her academic background includes a Bachelor's degree in Science and Techniques focusing on Quantifying and Treating Pollutants (water, air, waste, and noise) from the University of Pau (1995), a Master's degree in Water Chemistry and Microbiology from the University of Poitiers (1996), and a Ph.D. in Water Chemistry and Microbiology from the Mines Nantes Graduate School and the University of Poitiers in France (1999). Additionally, she completed a postdoctoral fellowship in Petroleum Biotechnology jointly at the Mexican Petroleum Institute and UAM Iztapalapa (2000–2002).

She serves as a Full Professor-Researcher (Category C) in the Microbiology Section of the Department of Biotechnology at the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana Unidad Iztapalapa, which she joined in 2003. She has been a member of Mexico's National System of Researchers (SNII) since 2002, currently holding the rank of National Researcher Level II, while maintaining PRODEP Desirable Profile recognition continuously since 2003.

With over 25 years of research experience, she has coordinated and executed projects on microbiological, physiological, and bioengineering aspects of microbial consortia for biological wastewater treatment. Her research focuses on the simultaneous removal of carbonaceous, nitrogenous, and sulfurous pollutants from effluents, the application of respiratory processes such as biological nitrification, denitrification, and desulfurization, the biodegradation of recalcitrant and aromatic organic compounds from the petrochemical, textile, and paper industries, and the removal of emerging organic contaminants such as pharmaceuticals and corrosion inhibitors.

Her graduate supervision and teaching record includes directing 21 undergraduate social service projects, 3 specialty theses, 7 Master's theses, and 4 Ph.D. dissertations, alongside serving on 46 degree examination committees. She served on the Graduate Studies Committee in Biotechnology at UAM Iztapalapa (2008–2012 and 2020–2025), acted as a grant evaluator across more than 25 CONAHCYT and SECIHTI calls, and reviewed for over 50 international peer-reviewed journals including Water Research, Bioresource Technology, Journal of Hazardous Materials, and Chemosphere. Her scientific production includes 55 peer-reviewed journal articles, 7 book chapters, 51 full-length proceedings papers, 162 conference presentations, and over 1,550 citations with an h-index of 21.
