| Welcome I
am a French CNRS permanent staff
researcher in Cosmology at the ''Centre de Recherche
en Informatique, Signal et Automatique de Lille''
(CRIStAL). I am also an associate researcher at
the "Institut
d'Astrophysique Spatiale" (IAS) in Orsay (South of
Paris) and a guest researcher at the "Leibniz Institut für
Astrophysik, Potsdam" (AIP). I work at producing
the tools and the knowledge required to reach an
accurate precision cosmology in order to test the
standard cosmological model.

Research Interests
To understand dark
matter and energy, large cosmological surveys are
designed to reach a few percent precision on
cosmological parameter measurements. To be fully
exploited, this large quantity of data needs to be
analyzed in light of cosmological simulations.
Preliminary analyses brought out tensions between
the standard cosmological model and observations.
Reaching a 1% precision on cosmological parameter
measurements, do systematic errors due to our cosmic
environment, survey and tool particularities rise
out? Analyses need to be fueled with a new type of
cosmological simulations designed to reproduce our
cosmic environment. Such simulations, that I named
CLONES (Constrained LOcal & Nesting Environment
Simulations), provide a robust methodological
framework to minimize the systematics. Unlike
typical simulations used in the scientific
community, their initial conditions are constrained
with a set of observational data. They thus
reproduce our local environment today.t

| Mediation I am always available to introduce Research and my research work to a large number of persons. Please contact me if you are interested. You will find below some examples of my actions: - Benevolent vice president of the
association ''Un Peu de Bon
Science'', I organize every year an 'astroweek'
(namely a week with astrophysics as the object of focus)
for high school students.
[Go back to the top]- I am a role model in the ''Science Taille XXElles'' project. This is a joint-organized project between the 'Femmes & Sciences' association, the French CNRS and the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Lyon. - In 2021, I co-organized ''la nuit est belle'' in Lyon surroundings to extend the event created by ''le Grand Genève''. This project is dedicated to sensitize the public to light pollution harms. It thus consists in switching off public lights for one night. - I am always prompt to participate to different conference-debates as well as to give public lectures. |
