Hélène Perrin (born 1972) is a French physicist working on quantum gas at Laser Physics Laboratory of Université Sorbonne Paris Nord and CNRS, where she is a research director and leads the Bose-Einstein Condensate group.[1][2]

She is head of the QuanTiP network, gathering all the actors on quantum technologies in Paris region.[3]

Education and career

Hélène Perrin studied physics and engineering at the École Polytechnique after studying at Lycée Louis-le-Grand, and pursued a master's degree in quantum physics at École Normale Superieure, before pursuing a PhD under the supervision of Christophe Salomon within Claude Cohen-Tannoudji's group on the topic of ultracold atoms,[4] which she completed in 1998. She then joined the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission as a postdoctoral fellow before becoming a CNRS staff scientist in 1999.
