Function and Responsibilities:

Project Manager and Research Scientist for the European Horizon MSCA Doctoral Network EnvSeis  (https://www.envseis.eu/)

Research Interests:

    My current focus consists in estimating and constraining seismic velocity evolution in various systems and tackle these subjects: 

  • The impact of earthquakes on the mechanical properties of the shallow subsurface (Non-linear Elasticity and Slow Dynamics)
  • Groundwater dynamics and recharge in steep landscapes
  • ... and any interactions between these subjects !
