Your Lead QSP PK - Project Manager

Cat-powered researcher geekin' out on pharmacometrics & real-world maths. Accomplished bio-mathematician focused on mechanistic modeling (QSP, PK, ODE) for oncology & neurosciences. Collaboration-minded, results-driven, and ready to push boundaries together. I currently work at Vantage-Research, your partner in drug-dev.

Professional headshot, Lyon - QSP/PK modeler

Welcome

Hello there! I am a Lead Scientist and QSP–PK modeler. My game is decoding biological complexity with mathematical models from ODEs to PDEs, from NCA to PBPK, to illuminate mechanisms in cancer and neurosciences. I love turning numbers into insights, sharing science, and collaborating across disciplines to make meaningful impact

I thrive in uncertain contexts, keep teams accountable and upbeat, and consistently deliver against project goals. From building strong teams and navigating tough discussions to resource juggling, I have got you covered
