My research focuses on structural study of natural fracture systems and the associated hydrothermal alteration with a special attention on clay minerals. The primary application field is for geothermal reservoir development in crystalline rocks.

Postgraduate Lecture/Tutorials:
• clay minerals in geothermal context in 2019 (University of Chile)
• structural geology and geothermal energy in the Upper Rhine Graben (Europe) in 2015 and 2017 (University of Strasbourg)

Scientific support:
• PhD students: Carole Glaas since 2018 (supervised by Dr Albert Genter, Pr Patricia Patrier and Pr Jean-François Girard) at the University of Strasbourg/Poitiers and Christian Betancourt since 2019 (supervised by Pr Diego Morata) at the University of Chile
• Master students at the University of Strasbourg in France: Coralie Aichholzer in 2014 (supervised by Pr Philippe Duringer and Dr Albert Genter), Violaine Berthet-Girard in 2014 (supervised by Pr Hubert Whitechurch and Dr Albert Genter) and Carole Glaas in 2017 (supervised by Dr Albert Genter and Pr Jean-François Girard)
