After graduating in Material Mechanics, Chloé directed her focus towards medical applications, pursuing a Master of Science in Medical Engineering specialized in biomechanics. Her research scope encompasses the design and validation of orthopedic devices, alongside the multi-scale mechanical characterization of biological tissues. Chloé dedicated her initial research endeavors to orthopedics, at the crossroad of in-vitro experimentation and clinical environments, delving into hand biomechanics before pivoting her focus to the biomechanics of surgically augmented spines during her thesis.

Throughout her doctorate, she honed her expertise in Digital Image Correlation and clinical imaging techniques while nurturing a growing interest for the cellular scale and the intricate connection between biomechanical pathologies and biological dysfunctions. Always keeping at heart to bridge fundamental research with concrete clinical challenges, she now concentrates on unraveling cell-matrix interactions in the cardiovascular system to enhance the prevention of aortic aneurysm dissection. Leveraging her transverse scientific background, Chloé integrated into the comprehensive QUMIN project, which combines mechanobiology, biomaterials, and optical methodologies for the in situ imaging of cell-matrix mechanical interactions.
