Alexandre Morin

Alexandre Morin is an Assistant Professor at the Leiden University Faculty of Science, affiliated with the Leiden Institute of Physics (LION) and the Morin Lab in the Department of Biological, Soft and Complex Systems. His research focuses on synthetic soft condensed matter, particularly the emergence of macroscopic properties from microscopic constituents in non-equilibrium systems.

• Position: Assistant Professor
• Institution: Leiden University
• Laboratory: Morin Lab - Synthetic Soft Condensed Matter

His work explores collective motion in disordered environments, active liquid flow under external fields, and flocking dynamics in synthetic materials. Key publications include studies on colloidal flocks, polar active matter, and anticipation-driven swarming.

Selected as a PhD advisor, he supervises students like Samadarshi Maity and Joshua Saldi. Collaborations include research with Denis Bartolo and others, supported by grants such as the ANR program MiTra and Institut Universitaire de France.
