About
Volcanologist, I relentlessly explored Earth gears and clockwork. I specialised myself in experimental geology, mimicking natural processes and observing what is normally hidden by millions of years or kilometers of depth.
Academic and proud tech-nerd, I always look for new approaches to make progress our understanding in rock mechanics. It naturally pushed me to settle at the European synchrotron (ESRF), this unparalleled laboratory.
I performed my PhD at the Ludwig Maximillians Universitat (Germany), before a few post-doctoral studies at the University of California Berkeley (USA), ETH Zurich (Switzerland), Universitet i Olso (Norway).
I am focussing today at exploring high resolution 4D rock experiments and the best ways to analyse and extract the parameters that will give us the fundamentals to understand our planet.
