Arnaud Trouvé 2020 Candidate Profile: The Combustion Institute Board of Directors

Reasons for Nomination

My area of research is science. I have been involved with the Combustion Institute (CI) through the US Eastern States Section (ESSCI) and the Joint US Sections (USSCI) since 2005 and 2011, respectively. I have served in different capacities: as member or Chair of the Executive Boards of ESSCI/USSCI; as Chair of the Program and Host Committees of ESSCI/USSCI technical meetings; as an organizer of Workshops and Summer Schools; and as a member of the Editorial Boards of the premier journals in combustion and fire science. I have always been driven by the conviction that the strength of a research community lies as much on the research accomplishments of its individual members as it does on the strength of its infrastructure. The Combustion Institute is the infrastructure of the combustion science community.

I have worked at ESSCI/USSCI towards transforming the US Sections into associations with a comprehensive and ambitious agenda. Areas in which I would like to now serve CI at the international level include: outreach activities (general public, students, government agencies, industry); professional development (early-career development, mentorship program); infrastructure to share teaching material, research tools and data; Summer Schools; academia-industry relations; governance; diversity; ethics; and publications.
