Cosmographer at University Paris-Saclay, mapping the large scale
structure of the universe. Research highlights: discoveries of Laniakea,
our home supercluster of galaxies; Ho'oleilana, the relic of a Bayon
Acoustic Oscillation; The South Pole Wall, one of the largest structure
of the universe; The Dipole Repeller, a void contributing to the motion
of our galaxy; Cold Spot Repeller, a void associated to the coldest
point of the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation.
