Research experience:
Since October 2016: Permanent CNRS researcher at Institut Camille Jordan, University of Lyon, on an exchange position between the Physics and Mathematics Institutes of CNRS. I am part of the Research Team “Probability, Statistics, Mathematical Physics”.
September 2014—October 2016: Postdoc at the Max-Planck-Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems, Dresden, Germany. I was in the group of Frank Pollmann (→ Munich, Germany).
January 2012—September 2014: Postdoc at the University of Virginia (Physics Department), Charlottesville, United States. I was in the group of Paul Fendley (→ Oxford, United Kingdom).
October 2008—December 2011: PhD at the “Institut de Physique théorique”, CEA/Saclay, France, under the supervision of Vincent Pasquier and Grégoire Misguich. Title “Entanglement in low-dimensional quantum systems”.
