Welcome

    Welcome to my professional website. I'm a maître de conférences (assistant professor) in the Department of Earth Sciences in Lyon. 

My main research topics are sediment transport, erosion and instabilities. More generally, I'm interested in complex fluid dynamics and its applications to geophysics and biology. I have previously worked on the rheology of foams in Trinity College Dublin and on the hydrodynamics of plankton swimming in the DTU Center for Fluid Dynamics.
