Research Interests

My research interests are about the lithosphere deformation mechanisms. For that purpose, I majored in InSAR processing to measure sub-centimetric temporal deformation over large area.  During the last past years, I have focused on the seismic cycle, and in particular on low rate deformations during the interseismic phase.
