Marie Farge
Marie Farge (born 1953) is a French mathematician and physicist who works as a director of research at CNRS, the French National Centre for Scientific Research. She is known for her research on wavelets and turbulence in fluid mechanics.
Education and career
Farge earned a master's degree from Stanford University in 1977, and a third cycle doctorate in physics from Paris Diderot University in 1980. After postdoctoral studies on a Fulbright Fellowship at Harvard University, she continued her studies at Pierre and Marie Curie University, where she completed a state doctorate in 1987.[1]
She has been a researcher at CNRS since 1981. She has also held short-term positions at many other universities, including being Sofia Kovaleskaia Chair of Mathematics in 1994–95 at Kaiserslautern University.[2]
Farge contributed to the "Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics - Volume 24, 1992" with her topic being "Wavelet Transforms and Their Applications to Turbulence". She also has plan to publish a book on the topic of Wavelets and Turbulence as requested by the Cambridge University Press. Regarding engineering, applications what evolves turbulence has caused issues for mathematics and physics.
Recognition and Award
Farge was the 1993 winner of the Poncelet Prize of the French Academy of Sciences.[3] She became a member of the Academia Europaea in 2005,[4] and a fellow of the American Physical Society in 2011.[2][5]
