Brief bio

I'm a junior CNRS researcher (Chargé de recherche) at LIRIS, University of Lyon, since October 2022. Before that I have been a postdoc in various places: at LIRIS working with Nicolas Bousquet, at Universidad de Chile working with José Correa; and at LIP6 Sorbonne University, working with Franck Petit. I got my PhD at IRIF, Université Paris 7 in 2018, under the supervision of Pierre Fraigniaud.

Student

I'm surpervising the PhD thesis of Sébastien Zeitoun (with Nicolas Bousquet and Éric Duchêne) and the M1 internship of Antonin Kiladjian (with Théo Pierron).

Other evaluation work

I was part of the best French CS PhD award committee (Gilles Kahn award) in 2022 and 2024.
I reviewed a grant application for ISF.

Talks

Recent or up-coming talks: None. For past talks → see my list of talks.

Organization

• Co-organizing the MoMA, a week of algorithms in Fall 2025 in Aussois.
• Member of the steering committee (bureau) of the French Algorithms and Complexity interest group, GT CoA.

For past events, see my CV.

Blogs

I have a research blog, Discrete Notes.

Teaching

• Algorithms for optimization (Master 1 course at University of Lyon 1. Exercise sessions. Main teachers: Nicolas Bousquet and Théo Pierron). 2024-25.
• Distributed computing in networks (Master 2 course at ENS Lyon. In charge of the course with Nicolas Bousquet, Théo Pierron and Stéphan Thomassé). 2024-2025 (see also last year's webpage)

Scientific mediation

Not much these days. For past mediation activities → see my full CV.

Climate change

Among other things, I'm concerned about climate change. As a researcher in TCS, my main source of work-related carbon emission is traveling to conferences. I try to reduce my travel emissions, and to advocate for a more carbon-efficient publication system. In particular:

• I've been Environmental chair of DISC 2022, with Tijn de Vos. At that occasion, we wrote a report on carbon emissions of PODC and DISC, which later was turned into column in SIGACT News.
• I signed the TCS for Future manifesto.
• I'm part of the Environment task force of my lab.
• I get involved in the organization of local or online events, and in online discussions.
