RESEARCH ORGANIZATION

ANR project EVOL 

I'm  a member of the ANR project EVOL: "Dissipative EVOLutions and convergence to equilibrium". I co-organize with François Bolley and Ivan Gentil the related working seminar at the Institut Henri Poincaré.

ANR project GeMeCoD

I'm  a member of the ANR project GeMeCoD: " Geometry of Convex and Discrete Measures ". I co-organize with Nathaël Gozlan the related monthly working seminar on "Curvature, optimal transport and probability theory"  at the Institut Henri Poincaré.

International doctoral college 

Together with Sylvie Roelly (Potsdam University, Germany), I manage the French-German doctoral college Applications of Stochastic Processes sponsored by the 
Franco-German University (UFA, DFH).  It is aimed at promoting exchanges between doctoral students in mathematics and their advisers from Potsdam and Paris Ouest universities.

ANR project IFO (2006-2008)

With some colleagues: P. Cattiaux, J. Dolbeault, I. Gentil and A. Guillin, I have initiated and organized the ANR (French agency for research) project IFO : "Inégalités Fonctionnelles, Probabilités et Equations aux Dérivées Partielles" (Functional inequalities, probability theory and partial differential equations).
