Since september 2016, I am assistant professor (Maitre de conférence) at the Institut de Mathématiques de Toulouse, in the 
Probability team.
Current research
 I am mainly interessed in 
 stochastic processes and their application to Biology or Ecology as well as 
 stochastic algorithms.
More specifically, I have been working on the following topics:
-  Individual based models motivated by biological issues (Birth and death processes with interactions, models for ecological communities, sexual reproduction mechanisms... ) 
 
-  Scaling limits of stochastic processes, 
 
-  Non linear Hawkes processes and their link with cumulative renewal processes,  ANR HAPPY 
 
-  Convergence and non asymptotic behaviour of Robbins Monro stochastic algorithm with different speeds,
 
I am currently involved in the following research projects:
 Stage M2
