Activités / CV

Jean-Luc Deschanvres was born in CAEN in 1962. He obtained an engineer degree in Physics and a master in material science at Grenoble Institute of Technology (Grenoble INP) in 1985. In 1990 he got a material science PhD at the same Institute and is a permanent CNRS researcher at LMGP since 1991. He is the co-author of more than 60 peer-reviewed publications http://orcid.org/0000-0003-4668-8501
