Florian Goirand graduated in 2017 with a Magistère of Fundamental Physics at the University Paris-Saclay and Msc. in Physics of Complex Systems conjointly supervised by University Paris-Saclay, University Pierre et Marie Curie and University Paris-Diderot (France) during which he specialized in statistical physics/mechanics. His undergraduate research notably focused on stochastic processess and out-of-equilibrium physics through the study of the Diffusion-Limited Aggregation (DLA) and the glass transition. During his PhD, done conjointly at Institut National Polytechnique de Toulouse and Observatoire des Sciences de l’Univers de Rennes (France), he principally worked on the design of statistical models of flow and transport in brain micro-vascular networks. In 2021, he joined Karen Alim’s group to study as main topic the (self-)organization of optimal flow networks with direct application to morphogenesis. He is also involved in the analysis of (collective) migratory dynamics of Physarum polycephalum.
