In June 2015, Eglantine Camby obtained a PhD in Science from the Université Libre de Bruxelles, Belgium, under the supervision of Samuel Fiorini and Jean Cardinal. Her research is in graph theory, at the intersection of computer science and mathematics. More specifically, during her thesis, she studied the dominating set problem, the vertex cover problem and the coloration problem.

The first year of her three-year postdoctoral fellowship at the Université Libre de Bruxelles is dedicated to a one-year internship in Montréal (HEC Montréal and GERAD). The two main goals of her visit are to broaden her skills, particularly in algorithmics and programming, and to gain some expertise in complex network. She will reach these goals thanks to the expertise and the supervision of Professor Gilles Caporossi.

More specifically, Eglantine’s internship will focus first on an empirical study of certain complex networks, and second, on the development of tools to study these networks.
