Research Interest

I am postdoc at the Institute for Astronmy of the University of Hawaii, thanks to a fellowship of the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. I have completed my PhD in astrophysics at the Service d'Astrophysique (France), on ISOCAM Deep Surveys. ISOCAM is a mid infrared camera on board of the ISO satellite. After my PhD, I spent about two years at the Padova Observatory (Italy), with a grant of the TMR network "Formation and Evolution of Galaxies".

My main interests are galaxies formation and evolution, as well as their infrared and sub-millimeter emission. I am currently working on infrared surveys interpretation and on galaxies emission from the optical to the sub-millimeter.
