- NEWSLETTER
After a Lavoisier post-doctoral fellowhsip at the University of Western Ontario in Canada in 1999, Karine Masenelli-Varlot joined INSA Lyon for the first time. She taught at Nancy I University from 2000 to 2002 and returned to INSA Lyon and MATEIS Laboratory, where she currently holds her Professor tenure.
MAIN REPONSABILITIES
- Member of the Managing Board of the Institute for Multiscale & Technology (LabEx iMUST), since 2015.
- Director of the Lyon Saint-Etienne Microscopy Consortium CLYM (federation gathering 13 laboratories, one of the platforms of the French Network METSA), since 2016.
- Member of the Managing Board of the Nanoperando Research network, since 2018.
- Chairwoman of the Scientific Committee of the Manutech-SLEIGHT Graduate School, since 2020.
TEACHING
- Basic physics (optics, electricity)
- Applied mathematics for international students at INSA.
- 50% of the courses are given in English
- Supervision of 17 PhD students, among which 4 are ongoing
COURSES
- Basic physics for international undergraduate students: geometric optics, measurements and uncertainties, electrokinetics (in English), physical optics (in French).
- Applied mathematics for international undergraduate students: vectors, complex numbers, differential calculus, parametric curves, integrals, fields (in English)
- Electron microscopy for graduate students (in English) and lifelong trainings (in French).
