Bio

I am an Associate Professor at Université Paris Cité and conduct my research at LIRA (Observatoire de Paris). My work focuses on the direct imaging of exoplanetary systems, with a strong emphasis on astronomical instrumentation. In particular, I develop techniques to reveal faint planets hidden in the glare of their host stars, including coronagraph design, wavefront sensing and control algorithms, and advanced data processing methods.

I received my PhD in Astronomy and Astrophysics from Observatoire de Paris – Université Paris Sciences et Lettres. I subsequently held postdoctoral positions at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and at the University of Bern, where I continued developing instrumentation and analysis techniques for high-contrast imaging of exoplanets.
