Christophe Demazière earned his PhD in reactor physics in 2002 and is now full professor at Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden. He is responsible for the research and teaching activities in computational nuclear reactor physics at Chalmers. The research group gathers a cross-disciplinary expertise in neutron transport, fluid dynamics, heat transfer, and numerical methods. The aim of the group is to develop beyond state-of-the-art techniques for modelling nuclear reactors, thus contributing to improved simulations tools and enhanced safety. Prof. Demazière is lecturing in courses on the physics and modelling of nuclear reactors.

He has authored a book on the “Modelling of Nuclear Reactor Multi-physics - From Local Balance Equations to Macroscopic Models in Neutronics and Thermal-Hydraulics”. For the past ten years, he has been developing and implementing innovative pedagogical methods (flipped classroom, active learning, hybrid teaching and online teaching) in all his teaching activities, with the purpose of improving student learning and the learning experience. For that purpose, the effects of the teaching reforms are systematically analyzed and evaluated. Since 2020, he is the acting coordinator of the GRE@T-PIONEeR Alliance.

He is a member of the American Nuclear Society.
