I am part of the "Simons Collaboration on Wave Turbulence" (2019-2026) in which I am coordinator for the Saclay cluster (FAST, LPP, IHES) and Principal Investigator at FAST.

I am the principal investigator at FAST of the project QuantumVIW (funded by the Agence Nationale de la Recherche, 2023-2027) on the "Dynamics of quantum vortices in rotating superfluid helium" in collaboration with Institut Néel, Lagrange laboratory and LEGI.

I am the principal investigator at FAST of the project CRIDEFI on the "debonding of viscoelastic polymers" funded by the CNRS (MITI program 2023) in collaboration with LPS and ICMMO.
