I obtained my PhD in Physics and Material Science from Aix-Marseille Université in 2021 at CEA Cadarache. I used atom-scale simulations methods to compute thermodynamical and point defect properties of uranium-plutonium mixed-oxides fuels. I then did my postdoc at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm to study the properties of nickel-based alloys, which are a relevant candidate to be used as core-structural materials for the future Swedish fast reactors. I joined the CEA DAM Île-de-France in 2024 to work on the equation of states of warm and dense plasmas, more specifically by developping machine-learning interatomic potential fitted on ab initio calculation data.
