His research focuses on the mathematical analysis of Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) in fluid dynamics and kinetic theory. Key areas include hydrodynamic stability, long-time behavior of viscous vortex systems, and time-decay properties of kinetic models like the Boltzmann and Wave Kinetic Equations. Recent work explores vortex merging phenomena and Taylor dispersion in rotationally symmetric flows.

Scientific activities include organizing workshops such as "Long time dynamics in random and deterministic systems" (2025) and co-organizing events like the "Deterministic and random features of fluids" summer school (2023) and the "Enjoying Probability and Fluids in Lausanne" workshop (2023). His publications span journals including Communications in Mathematical Physics, Archive for Rational Mechanics and Analysis, and Journal of Mathematical Fluid Mechanics.
