"Science in the Pipeline" is the concept that more often than not it's basic curiosity-driven discovery research that supplies the ideas, the understanding, and the concepts which eventually make their way into innovation, commercial impact and social benefits. My research, with my team members, begins with the science of the interaction between extremely short pulses of intense laser light and matter. At its most basic, we're interested in how the relationships between light and matter change -- qualitatively, fundamentally -- in the case of the most intense light we can produce on Earth. The things we learn, and the techniques and tools we develop along the way, we're then able to use towards creative innovations, new applications in things like advancing the best of materials-processing, or developing new approaches to the treatment of cancer or less-invasive kinds of surgery for heart-valve repair. For our experimental work, we need access to the highest-peak-power lasers available worldwide, and we seek opportunities in France, the UK, the USA, as well as at home. Our theoretical work needs access to powerful multi-processor computers to run simulations, though we also work with pen and paper. For applications we use the same kind of ultrafast lasers, but downscaled to systems we can operate in my own laboratories. We discover qualitatively new ways to 'treat' materials and biotissues: modifying structure, changing functionality, mitigating problems and creating new opportunities, new tools, new approaches. This gives students of all kinds, and driven by different goals, an exceptional opportunity to develop their deep understanding in physics, medical biophysics and optics, while supporting their ambition to contribute to society in the most important ways they can imagine.

“管道中的科学”是一个概念，它经常是基本的好奇心驱动的发现研究，它提供了最终进入创新，商业影响和社会利益的思想，理解和概念。 我的研究与团队成员始于极端激光光和物质脉冲之间相互作用的科学。 从最基本的角度来看，我们对光与物质之间的关系如何变化感兴趣 - 从定性，根本上讲 - 在我们可以在地球上产生的最强烈的光线。 我们学习的东西以及我们在此过程中开发的技术和工具，然后我们能够用于创造性创新，在推进材料处理的最佳处理中的新应用，或开发用于治疗癌症或减少侵入性手术的新方法来进行心脏接种。 在我们的实验工作中，我们需要访问全球可用的峰值功率激光器，并且我们在法国，英国，美国以及在家中寻求机会。 我们的理论工作需要访问强大的多处理器计算机来运行模拟，尽管我们还可以使用笔和纸。 对于应用，我们使用了相同的超快激光器，但对我们可以在自己的实验室中运行的系统进行了缩减。我们发现了“治疗”材料和生物节的定性新方法：修改结构，改变功能，减轻问题并创造新的机会，新工具，新方法。这为各种各样的学生提供了不同的目标，这是一个备受推崇的机会，可以在物理，医学生物物理学和光学方面发展深刻的理解，同时支持他们以最重要的方式为社会做出贡献的雄心。 “ des chercheurs qui cherchent，on en trouve。 -Charles de Gaulle “我们找到的研究人员；我们发现的研究人员，我们寻求这些。” -Charles de Gaulle
