Objectives
[THIS PAGE IS OUTDATED] To study complex and/or adaptable systems, either in physics or biophysics. My goal is to work at a crossroads, for instance by modeling biological systems (especially their physical properties), in order to benefit from the interest and complementarity of those different fields.
Interests
After two years of rather balanced studies, between theory and experiments, I finally decided to go towards theory and modeling. My desire for interdisciplinarity stems from a general interest about sciences but also aims at achieving an overall vision of the encountered issues. Using those three different viewpoints, we can then find new ways of tackling these challenges.
Beyond the interdisciplinarity, my favorite field being physics, I enjoy the idea of applying it to study phenomena in fields that are not fully understood yet.
My goal is thus to continue my studies to work as a researcher, possibly in the study of complex systems, especially in the field of biology.
