Presentation
After obtaining a diploma in engineering from Grenoble INP - ENSE3, Marie Poulain-Zarcos completed her thesis at the Toulouse Institute of Fluid Mechanics on the transport of micro-plastics in the ocean. She went on to do a post-doctorate in Marseille on the spatial distribution of red blood cells before being recruited as a teacher-researcher at the École Centrale de Lyon
Research projects
Her research interests include: particle transport, stratification, turbulent flow, microplastics, marine snow, renewable energy, solar and heat transfer.
