I am a chargée de recherche at CNRS, based in the laboratoire de physique de l'École Normale Supérieure in Paris. As a theoretical physicist, I work on various problems in soft and condensed matter, with a focus on the statistical physics of disordered systems. I search for new dynamic and thermodynamic behaviors combining analytical and computational approaches, and investigate how they emerge from disorder and non-equilibrium conditions. In 2016, I graduated in Physics from the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Lyon. I received my PhD in 2019 from the University of Montpellier, advised by L. Berthier and F. Zamponi (ENS, Paris). I then joined the University of Cambridge as a postdoctoral researcher working with M. E. Cates. In 2020 I became an Herchel Smith postdoctoral Fellow based in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics at the University of Cambridge, and a Fellow of Sidney Sussex College (2020-2023). In 2022, I was awarded the Young Scientist Prize in Statistical Physics from the International Union for Pure and Applied Physics. I was awarded a L'Oréal-UNESCO For Women in Science Young Talents France Fellowship in 2018. For more information please visit the Research, Publications, Talks or CV pages. |

We employ machine learning-driven molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the rippling dynamics of freestanding graphene sheets in the absence or presence of atomic defects. We demonstrate the presence of a disorder-induced dynamic transition from freely propagating ripples to frozen and static buckling.

We derive the generalized Lotka-Volterra model recently analyzed in theoretical ecology from a chemical reaction network, and discuss future challenges to develop theories describing emergent behavior in large chemical reaction networks.

I wrote a News & Views on Andreas Neophytou and colleagues' recent article revealing the fascinating topological changes at liquid-liquid phase transitions, recently published in Nature Physics.

We simulate for the first time the dynamics of supercooled liquids down to the experimental glass transition, over up to 11 decades in time.
