Presentation

My position is CNRS "directeur de recherche" (senior researcher), at the applied maths department of University Grenoble Alpes (LJK U.M.R.5224), where I am the scientific leader of the DAO team. I used to serve as a member of the scientific committee of the GdR ROD (Operations Research and Decision-making), the one of the Program Gaspard Monge for Optimization PGMO, as well as the one of SMAI-MODE group of the French applied maths society. The picture on the right dates back from the time I was post-doc at Cornell.
