I'm University Professor, and team leader (LTm, Laser Treatment of Materials, Le Creusot) at the Carnot Interdisciplinary Laboratory of Burgundy (ICB). After 15 years in the University of Technology of Belfort-Montbéliard (UTBM), as Assistant-Professor, I joined the LTm team at ICB in 2016, contributed to the development of dissimilar welding activities, locally launched the WAAM activity in 2022, and launched a WLAM activity from 2025. I'm now implied in the development of a new hybrid manufacturing technology of large dimension solid parts, combining WAAM (printing of gastight containers) and Hot Isostatic Pressing of powder. Also implied in recent activities on Energy storage, and particularly using Solar salts.
