Biography

Clément Toupoint is a research engineer at Vaisala, specializing in meteorological applications of wind lidars. He earned his PhD in 2018 with a thesis on the dynamics of cylinders falling in quiescent and bubbly liquids. Following his doctorate, Clément completed postdoctoral research at Physics Laboratory of ENS Lyon, focusing on falling drops in confined media and imaging thermal convection using Laser Induced Fluorescence, and at ENSTA Paris, where he studied interactions between turbulence and inertial particles. Since joining Vaisala in 2023, he has developed expertise in lidar-based atmospheric measurements, with a particular interest in turbulence measurement.
