Academic Background
I hold a PhD in Particle Physics from IMT Atlantique (Nantes, 2019–2022), where my research focused on the search for neutrinoless double beta decay with the XENONnT experiment. Prior to this, I earned a Master’s degree in Fundamental Physics and Applications from Nantes Université, acquiring expertise in quantum mechanics, nuclear and statistical physics, Monte Carlo simulations, astrophysics, and cosmology. My academic journey also includes a Bachelor’s in Physics from Nantes Université, and earlier studies in physics and mathematics at Sorbonne Université, as well as a DUT in Thermal Engineering and Energy. This diverse curriculum provided me with a solid grounding in theoretical and experimental physics, mathematics, and computational methods.
Professional Experience
I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at Nikhef in Amsterdam, serving as main analysis coordinator for the XENON collaboration. My work has been dedicated to the analysis of high-energy electronic recoil events for the search of new physics with the XENONnT experiment. Previously, I completed my doctoral research at SUBATECH (Nantes), focusing on neutrinoless double beta decay searches and detector calibration. I have also held several research internships, including studies of background noise in the DARWIN experiment, secondary scintillation gain in XENON1T, rapidity distributions in LHC collisions, friction physics at Laboratoire Jean Perrin (Paris), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy at Concordia University (Montreal). These experiences have given me a broad perspective on experimental techniques and data analysis in astroparticle physics and related fields.
Teaching and Mentoring Activities
Throughout my academic career, I have been actively involved in teaching and mentoring. I have served as a teaching assistant for undergraduate and master’s courses in electronics, data analysis, instrumentation, detection, and particle simulation at IMT Atlantique. More recently, I have taught specialized lectures on dark matter and neutrino detection at the PhD and Master’s level (BND-School, University of Amsterdam). In addition, I have supervised and co-supervised numerous students at the Bachelor’s, Master’s, and PhD levels, guiding research projects on data analysis for XENONnT and DARWIN, both at Nikhef and IMT Atlantique. My mentorship has supported students in developing their skills in experimental physics, data analysis, and scientific communication.
Responsibilities and Community Involvement
Within the XENON collaboration, I have taken on major responsibilities, including principal coordinator of analyses, coordinator of high-energy electronic recoil analyses, and leader of calibration event selection and detector performance monitoring. I have also contributed to the drafting of key scientific papers. Beyond research, I am a member of the postdoctoral council at Nikhef, serve on the colloquium organizing committee at the GRAPPA center (University of Amsterdam), and have previously held roles as a representative of doctoral students and as secretary of the Physics Students’ Association in Nantes.
Awards
In July 2021, I was awarded the best poster prize at the SOUP summer school, recognizing the quality and impact of my research presentation.
Technical Skills
I have advanced proficiency in Python, C, C++, and LaTeX, with working knowledge of Matlab, Linux, Windows, and Mac OS. I am also familiar with containerization and reproducible research workflows using Docker, and have experience in the development and deployment of scientific and web applications. Additionally, I have basic experience with Labview and office software.
Languages
I am a native French speaker and am proficient in English, with strong communication skills for both written and oral scientific exchange.
