Hello! I am interested in the mathematical modeling of large scale self-organized phe-
nomena in life science, from the dynamics of biological cells forming tissues to the behaviour of interacting agents within societies. These systems, often referred to as complex systems, are typically described as large systems of active particles. Their understanding mostly relies on the derivation and analysis of suitable scaling limits that reveal more informative statistical descriptors. My background is in mathematical kinetic theory, a branch of statistical physics originally developed to bridge the gap between molecular-level gas dynamics and macroscopic thermodynamic and fluid equations. My work combines analytical approaches (in particular partial differential equations, stochastic analysis and a bit of geometry) but also in silico computer simulations that are nowdays essential. I am interested in theoretical mathematical problems but I also work in close collaboration with biologists on interdisciplinary applied projects, especially in developmental biology.
