In this article, you will discover how he oriented his academic career towards chemistry, then the environment and research, and you will understand his enthusiasm for the secrets of the isotopes of sulfate, nitrate and ammonium trapped in the ice of Mont Blanc. Worried about the impacts of current climate change, his involvement in the Ice Memory program allows him to contribute to scientific advances and to communicate them.

The portrait of Alexis on the Echosciences Grenoble website was written by Mehmet Polat and Mohamad El-Sayed, undergraduate students following the "Sciences, journalism and social networks" transversal course offered at the University of Grenoble Alpes (UGA).
