Research


My group is currently supported by:

ANR-SNF project SUGAR: Surfaces, Geometry and Algorithms . Co-PI and national coordinator for the Swiss team.

Two former members of my group were supported by European grants:

Alexey Balitskiy was supported by a Marie Skłodowska-Curie postdoctoral fellowship (2023-2025).
Systolic and diastolic estimates in geometry
Katie Vokes was supported by a Marie Skłodowska-Curie postdoctoral fellowship (2023-2025).
Combinatorial and Geometric Methods for Mapping Class Groups of Surfaces

We benefited greatly from the support of the Luxembourg National Research Fund:

FNR OPEN Grant (2022-2025)
HypSTER (Hyperbolic Surfaces and Their Euclidean Renderings): PI
FNR AFR Bilateral Grant with Singapore (2023-2025)
Resurface: co-PI with Jean-Marc Schlenker
FNR OPEN Grant (2020-2024)
SOUND (Surfaces, orthogeodesics and their underlying moduli spaces): PI
ANR-FNR INTER Grant (2019-2023)
SOS: Structures On Surfaces: co-PI and national coordinator for Luxembourg
PRIDE PhD Grant (2019-2023)
GPS: co-PI and main coordinator
FNR AFR Bilateral Grant with Singapore (2018-2020)
COALAS: co-PI with Jean-Marc Schlenker
PRIDE PhD Grant (2017-2021)
GSM: co-PI
FNR PSP Classic for Scientific Outreach (2018-2020)
Unpuzzling mathematics: PI

In addition, the FNR has been very supportive of multiple outreach events we've been involved with, including our presence at the Universal Expo and science festivals.

I am also very grateful to the Swiss National Science Foundation for their support in the past. In particular, I have benefitted from the following grants:

SNF Professorship Grants
Grants numbers PP00P2_128557 (2010-2014) and PP00P2_153024 (2014-2017)
AGORA Grant for Scientific Outreach
Grant number CRAGI2_145616 (2013-2015)
Early Postdoc Grant
Grant number PBEL2_106180 (2004-2005)

The SNSF also funds the Centro Stefano Franscini, which provided me with a generous conference grant.

I was a member of the GEAR network funded by the National Science Foundation.

I've also been an external member of different research groups funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Education:

Grants numbers 2006-14688 (2007-2010) and 2011-23092 (2012-2015)
