Pr Paoli is an associate professor at Polytechnique Montréal in the Mechanical Engineering Department since 2022. His research interests and expertise are in the areas of turbulence modeling and simulation, multiphysics modeling for aeronautical and aerospace applications, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and high-performance computing (HPC). He has two engineering degrees and masters in aeronautical engineering and aerospace engineering, and a Ph.D. in aerospace engineering from La Sapienza University of Rome. He was a postdoctoral fellow of the Center for Turbulence Research at Stanford University. He worked several years as research scientist at the European Center for Research and Advanced Training in Scientific Computing (CERFACS) in Toulouse where he contributed to create a new team named Aviation and Environment devoted to the study of the environmental impact of aircraft emissions. He obtained the Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches (HDR) from the Institut National Polytechnique de Toulouse. Before joining Polytechnique Montréal, he was research professor and then assistant professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago. He also held a joint appointment as computational scientist at Argonne National Laboratory.
