About Me
I'm a CNRS researcher, working in the physics team at MIO. I worked during my PhD and the majority of my career on Particle Physics. I was acting in a major decay channel of the Higgs boson that led to its discovery in 2012, a crucial discovery as the Higgs boson was the missing particle of the Standard Model of Particle Physics, searched for almost 50 years and responsible for the mass of particles. In 2017, I operated a thematic shift towards physical oceanography and worked since then at MIO in the OPLC team, which I lead (in binome) between 2022 and 2024. My activities are focused on measuring vertical velocities in situ, in particular in the context of fine scale dynamics.
