I am an assistant-professor in Astronomy at the
Department of Earth Sciences
of the
National Taiwan Normal University
in Taipei, Taiwan.
My main research interests are galaxy formation, evolution, their kinematics at small scales, and
behaviour at large scales.
I have played a leading role in several major extra-galactic surveys over the past decade
(such as
VVDS,
UKIDSS,
VISTA,
PanSTARRS, etc...).
Currently, I am the Principal Investigator of the Taiwan Extragalactic Astronomical Data Center, which provides the
worldwide community cross-matched information between major surveys across different wavebands, as well as
dedicated analytical tools.
In my present role, I also teach Astronomy, and especialy Cosmology, at Undergraduate and Graduate levels.
I am a French citizen,
married to a lovely wife and have a cute little boy.
