Julien Collard
Learning the Earth with Artificial Intelligence and Physics (LEAP)
Hosted by Professor of Earth and Environmental Engineering, Pierre Gentine Ph.D
I'm a third-year student at École polytechnique, France, specializing in environmental engineering. Originally from Marseille, I pursued a two-year preparatory program in mathematics and physics before joining Polytechnique for my engineering studies. Throughout my academic journey, I have explored various fields, including Machine Learning and geophysics, studying topics such as deep learning, meteorology, hydrology. I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to the research on extreme weather predictions during my time at Columbia.

Justine Biscay
Zuckerman Institute
Hosted by Assistant Professor of Neuroscience and Principal Investigator at Columbia's Zuckerman Institute Rudy Behnia, Ph.D
My name is Justine and I am an intern at the Behnia Lab for 4 months. I was born and raised in Paris, and I study applied mathematics at the Ecole Polytechnique. Outside of work, I love hanging out with friends, reading and playing tennis (even if I am far from being good at it)!

Oliver Pont
Hosted by the Director of Pediatric Heart Valve Center, Surgical Director for the Initiative for Pediatric Cardiac Innovation, and Director of Kalfa Research Lab David M. Kalfa, M.D.,Ph.D.
I'm Olivier, a French graduate student from Ecole Polytechnique where I specialized both in biomedical engineering and entrepreneurship. I love sports, especially soccer and martial arts such as judo and karate, DJing and music. I'm very enthusiastic about joining the Columbia University Irving Medical Center team to work on innovations to treat congenital cardiac malformations.
