Instrumentation for high contrast imaging of exoplanets, coronagraph design, wavefront sensing and control.
Profile:
After a master's degree at the Institute of Optics (Paris Saclay University, France) and a traineeship at the European Space Agency (Noordwijk, the Netherlands), I earned a PhD in Astronomy from the University of Paris. My research was conducted at LESIA, Paris Observatory and focused on WFS&C strategies to address the pupil fragmentation issue of the Extremely Large Telescope (ESO). Outside of the lab, you will find me rock climbing or enjoying long runs on flat and hilly terrains.
