Research
My research is focusing on the earliest stages of galactic star formation, from low-mass stars to massive stars.
I try in particular to characterise the role of dense gas dynamics on the determination of star-forming-core masses. To do this, I use state-of-the-art observations spanning a range of wavelengths, from infrared to millimetre.

Biography
I arrived at Cardiff University in April 2013 as a Lecturer.
Prior to that, from January 2010 to March 2013, I was a COFUND Marie Curie Fellow at CEA Saclay, France.
From December 2005 to December 2009, I was a PDRA at the University of Manchester, starting immediately after getting my PhD degree from the Universite Marie Curie in Paris.
