Biography

I am an associate professor of Applied Mathematics at Grenoble INP - Ensimag. I perform my research in LJK (Laboratoire Jean Kuntzmann). I am a member of the EDP team in Partial Differential Equation.

My research interests include Scientific computing, High Performance Computing, Simulation and Modeling.

I am also involved in MaiMoSiNE.

MaiMoSiNE is an university structure which provides an interface for industrial engineers and scientists to communicate their needs, objectives and challenges, to university researchers.
