Hugo Georges Victor Lavenant

I got my PhD from Université Paris-Sud (Orsay, France) in 2019 under the supervision of Filippo Santambrogio in the field of calculus of variations and optimal transport. Then I did a postdoc at the University of British Columbia (Vancouver Canada) under the supervision of Young-Heon Kim, Brenan Pass, Geoffrey Schiebinger and Dave Schneider using optimal transport to analyze biological data. I am now Assistant Professor at Bocconi University since 2020.
