Andrée Barnier

I am an applied mathematician who is passionate about modelling complex systems using probabilistic and statistical tools.

During my PhD at MaIAGE, INRAE under the supervision of Patrick Hoshceit, Elisabeta Vergu and Estelle Khun, I focused on developing spatialy embedded probabilistic models to help understand the commercial cattle network in France using random graph models. I was particularly interested in the spread of epidemics on random graphs, as well as parameter inference using approximate statistical methods based on simulations.
