I am a CNRS reseacher in Sorbonne Université. 

I am interested in the development of mathematical models to understand the devellopment of biological system. It includes a variety of system from cellular epithelium to bacteria colony. Up to now my project are:

• the study of the influence of crowding in pseudostratified epithelia during the interkinetic nuclear movement using microscopic models and minimization algorithms.

• devellopment of a macroscopic level to studying the influence of structured tissue with multiple segregated cell populations on tissue growth.

• understanding the interaction between bacteria during the formation of micro-colony.
