Bio

I was trained as a physicist at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris, with a specialization in hydrodynamics, complex systems and non-linear physics. As parts of the curriculum, I did two experimental internships under the mentoring of:

• Nicolás Mujica in the Laboratorio de Materia Fuera de Equilibrio (LMFE, Universidad de Chile, Santiago de Chile), where I worked on a vibrated monolayer of grains.
• Henri Lhuissier and Laurent Limat in the lab Matière et Systèmes Complexes (MSC, Université Paris Diderot, Paris), studying the impact and deflection of a visco-elastic jet on a pillar.

Each time, I set up the experiment and implemented the data processing, and both of them led to a publication (Phys. Rev. E and Phys. Rev. Lett. respectively).

I completed my PhD under the supervision of Emmanuel Villermaux at the Institut de Recherche sur les Phénomènes Hors Équilibre (IRPHE, Marseille). There, I worked on the destabilisation and rupture of free standing liquid films, contributing to the fields of liquid fragmentation and stability of interfaces.

My training does not end here, since as a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Luc Deike’s group at Princeton University, I extended my field of expertise to oceanographic and atmospheric sciences by investigating collective effects in the bursting of surface bubbles in the context of sea spray aerosols production. I am now working as a postdoc with Véronique Roig and Patricia Ern at IMFT, on 2D bubbles squeezed in a Hele-Shaw cell.
