I am currently working as a CNRS researcher (Chargé de Recherche) at the Laboratoire Interdisciplinaire de Physique in Grenoble, within the Statistical Physics and Modeling group.
I am interested in the structure and rheology of soft amorphous materials, like glasses, granular systems or dense suspensions. My main focus is the way these materials behave close to liquid-solid transitions, such as jamming, yielding or glass transitions. I use both analytical and numerical tools to tackle these problems.
