Biography

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Inria MONC team and at the Bordeaux Institute of Mathematics. I am currently collaborating with the Goetz Lab for Tumor Biomechanics (Strasbourg), studying the dynamics of circulating tumor cells in blood vessels. I am working on the mathematical and numerical modeling, data assimilation and calibration. This project is developed with Annabelle Collin and Christèle Etchegaray.

In October 2022, I obtained my PhD in applied mathematics at the Laboratoire Jacques-Louis Lions (LJLL) and Università di Roma Tor Vergata, under the direction of Benoît Perthame (LJLL) and Roberto Natalini (Istituto per le Applicazioni del Calcolo, CNR, Rome). I was also member of the Inria MAMBA team.

PhD Thesis: “Reaction-diffusion equations with membrane conditions describing tumor invasion”
