Nano-Caterpillars
Particles with sticky feet (or nano-caterpillars) harness rapid binding and unbinding of feet to a surface to achieve complex motion. Presentation at APS March Meeting 2021.
Communication & Outreach
I believe science starts when someone else understands the discovery made. Therefore, I strive to communicate in various ways and at a diversity of scales.

Noise in Nanopores
Fractional noise (a subset of subdiffusive noise) is inherent in nanopores, for example when counting particles crossing the pore. Presentation at FICN 2021.
Wiggly Nanotubes
Transport in fluctuating or wiggly nanotubes is greatly enhanced compared to static tubes, but it's not always as simple! Presentation at APS March Meeting 2020.

Science Fares
There's nothing more fun than to enjoy an afternoon at a science fare in company of curious minds. Looking forward to more live events as soon as possible !
Outreach Talks
I have given numerous outreach talks in French and English on my research. Attached is a 2 min pitch I gave in 2017 at the Falling Walls Lab in Berlin.
