I am an observational and theoretical astrophysicist at EPFL. My main area of research is dark matter and trying to understand its properties and dynamics. I love to use deep learning in my work and understand how fondation models and generative AI can help us understand the Universe. I am a member of Euclid and ARRAKIHS and the lead of the self interacting dark matter Key Project in Euclid. Outside of my r
