About me

I worked at the University of Geneva for 8 years, obtaining my PhD in environmental science during the same period. I subsequently served as researcher at the CNR (Italy) before obtaining my current employement at CNRS in 2012.

My research focusses on the responsible use of critical raw materials, notably REE, Ni and associated elements and on issues related to the circular water economy, notable the ecotoxicological evaluation of innovative methods for the degradation of recalcitrant compounds in wastewaters.
