Hey there! Welcome to my personal homepage!

I am a Maîtresse de Conférences (~Assistant/Associate Professor) in Applied Mathematics in the Laboratoire Jean Kuntzmann at the Université Grenoble Alpes, in Grenoble (France). I am part of the CASC research group (Calcul Algébrique et Symbolique, Sécurité, Systèmes Complexes, Codes et Cryptologie).

In my research, I'm interested in algebraic geometry over finite fields and number theory, and I enjoy when I can apply pure mathematical tools coming from these fields to cryptography (e.g. isogeny-based cryptography) and coding theory (e.g. algebraic geometric codes).

Am I obsessed with $\pi$? Maybe... or maybe it's because I'm also a founding member of the Pi Day Association. The Pi Day Association, which works to promote and communicate mathematics to the general public, has been awarded the d'Alembert prize in 2016 by the French Mathematical Society (Société Mathématique de France): probably for the first time in France, we brought mathematics on the stage of big theaters in Paris, Marseille and Lyon for two unconventional musicals.

Since then, I have been playing my role of ambassador of mathematics in several ways and contexts. I strongly believe in the importance of dissemination activities and I will keep working to make mathematics inclusive, fun and humane.

Enjoy surfing through my website, where you can find more information about my research, my teaching, and my activities related to bringing science into the public eye!

All the best,

Things I am currently organising:

• AfriMath Seminar in Number Theory and Information Theory, Online (with Moustapha Camara).
  Online seminar series bringing together researchers across Africa, France and beyond.
  Please, drop me an email if you wish to give a talk!
• CASC Seminar, Laboratoire Jean Kuntzmann, Grenoble.
  The seminar of our research group, usually held on Thursdays at 9:30am.
  Again, if you’d like to give a talk, feel free to drop me an email!
• FAVORITE Conference, in honor of Yves Aubry, on the occasion of his 60th 30th birthday, Porquerolles island, France, August 31 - September 4, 2026 (with Elena Berardini).
  A week of mathematics, discussion, and shared moments, bringing together Yves’s students, collaborators, colleagues, and friends!
