Lucile DEZERALD

Lucile DEZERALD is an Associate Professor at Université de Lorraine, affiliated with Ecole des Mines de Nancy (School of Engineering) and the Institut Jean Lamour. She specializes in atomic-scale modeling of defects in materials and physical metallurgy, with a focus on microstructure and stress analysis. Her research includes ab initio studies of screw dislocations in BCC metals and investigations into cement for nuclear waste storage containers.

• PhD in Physical Metallurgy (2011-2014) at CEA Saclay
• Postdoctoral research at MIT (2014-2015)
• BSc in Nuclear Science and Engineering at Phelma School of Engineering (2008-2011)

She leads teaching initiatives in materials science, including the "Design of Innovative Alloys" option and the "Diversity, Equity, Inclusion" program at Mines Nancy. Her expertise bridges computational modeling of materials defects with practical applications in metallurgy.
