10 november 10 nov	It is my pleasure to invite you to the public defence of my Ph.D. thesis, titled “Gravity-driven thin films: flow and dissolution.” The defence will be held this Friday, 14 November, at 17h00 on the EPFL campus.
13 october 13 oct	I would like to thank my thesis jury: Tobias Schneider, John R. Lister, Thomas Salez, and Christophe Ancey; before whom I defended my doctoral thesis today. I am deeply grateful for their goodwill, curiosity, and brilliant questions, which sparked a truly delightful discussion.
25 march 25 mar	I will have the pleasure of presenting a poster on rain-driven dissolution at the 28e Rencontre du Non-Linéaire (Paris, 25–27 March). Find our abstract here.
16 march 16 mar	I am pleased to attend this year’s APS Global Physics Summit (Anaheim CA, 16–21 March). A collaboration with Loup Hasbroucq and Sylvain Courrech du Pont has resulted in two contributed talks on rain-driven dissolution. Find our abstracts here and here.
