Senior🎓
Top SchoolYannick Copin is an associate professor and habilitated astrophysicist with 14+ years of experience leading observational cosmology efforts and heading the EUCLID/Observational Cosmology group at Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1. He combines deep expertise in integral field and slitless spectrography with hands-on development of data reduction and analysis software, enabling precise spectro-photometric calibration and galaxy dynamics studies. His career spans international research positions including a Chretien/France–Berkeley visit and a Marie Curie–funded postdoc in Leiden, reflecting a strong collaborative network. Equally comfortable at the telescope or the codebase, he brings an uncommon blend of instrument-level know-how and computational rigor to large survey science.
