I am a lecturer and research scientist at the Ecole Supérieure d'Ingénieurs Léonard de Vinci, Paris La Défense (France). I am also a member of the De Vinci Research Center.
My main interest is the mathematical modelling of biological systems, in particular tumour-immune dynamics. This research aims to have a better understanding of how immunotherapies could be used to enhance the effectivess of the anti-tumour immune responses.
Before that, I was a postdoctoral research fellow at Inria Bordeaux-Sud Ouest, within the research team MONC led by Clair Poignard.
Until december 2022 I was a PhD student in Applied Mathematics at the Laboratoire Jacques-Louis Lions (LJLL) under the supervision of Luis Almeida (LJLL), Chloé Audebert (LJLL and LCQB) and Tommaso Lorenzi (Politecnico di Torino). I was also member of the INRIA team MAMBA. My thesis was entitled "Mathematical models of tumour-immune interactions: discrete and continuum approaches".
