Chargée de recherche with CQFD, Inria. Previously, I was a postdoc at Université de Lorraine working with Denis Villemonais and Anne Gégout-Petit. I completed my PhD at the University of Bath under the supervision of Andreas Kyprianou, Alex Cox and Simon Harris. Here is a link to my thesis

My research interests include:

• Branching processes and their applications
• Neutron transport equation
• Quasi-stationary distributions
• Monte Carlo methods and related simulation techniques
• Growth-fragmentation processes

Other projects

Here is a list of projects I have participated in during Integrative Think Tanks (ITTs).

• Modelling the transmission of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)

  
  This project was in collaboration with Richard James and Ed Feil from the Department of Biology and Biochemistry at the University of Bath. Below is a list of resources that provide some background information to the project, along with the code and presentation I developed at the ITT.
  
  • Paper
  • Python code to simulate the transmission and mutation of MRSA within and between hospitals.
  • Presentation given at the end of the workshop to summarise the problem and output during the ITT.
