Research interests
I am a physicist specialised in fluid mechanics, with a strong interest in hydrodynamics and microfluidics.
I am particularly interested in using microfluidics to better understand swimming micro-organisms, for instance the interactions of such living micro-swimmers (bacteria, micro-algae...) with their environment.
Experience
I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at LadHyX (École polytechnique, Palaiseau) working on microfluidics with Gabriel Amselem.
At the moment, I am working on two main projects:
- The erosion of microfluidic channels and its importance to homogenise flows;
- The transport of passive particles by swimming micro-algae.
