Biography
Antoine Hoffmann is a PhD student at the Swiss Plasma Center, developing a new gyrokinetic code for simulating fundamental turbulent transport mechanism in fusion plasmas (see https://gitlab.epfl.ch/ahoffman/gyacomo). He is also one of the four representative of the intermediate body at the EPFL assembly.Originally from Geneva, Antoine holds a Bachelor's degree in physics from EPFL (with a year spent at the Humboldt Universität zu Berlin) and a Master's degree in Computational Science and Engineering from EPFL. During his Master's, Antoine did a six-month internship at Saint-Gobain Recherche in Paris (on industrial centrifugal casting multi-physics simulations) and conducted his Master's thesis at the Insitut Für Fluid Dynamik at ETH Zurich (on simulations and stochastic modelling of transport in porous rocks).
In addition to his research responsibilities, Antoine is actively involved as a representative, for Master's students (2017-2018), PhD students (2020-2023), and is actually a member of the EPFL School Assembly since 2022.
