About me

I am a PhD student in the MATHERIALS team based at CERMICS, École des Ponts ParisTech, and am affiliated to the doctoral school ED 386 at Sorbonne University. I am under the supervision of Gabriel Stoltz and co-supervision of Pierre Monmarché.

I am funded by Fondation sciences mathématiques de Paris (FSMP) through a 3-year doctoral fellowship.

Research

Thesis title: Efficient computation of transport coefficients

I am interested in statistical physics, more specifically in nonequilibrium settings. We study these systems using both computational and modeling techniques, as well as analysis and theoretical methods. In particular, the focus of my research is to construct dedicated and efficient numerical methods for the computation of transport coefficients.
