Bertrand Laratte
Visiting scholar and Adjunct Professor, 2018-2019
Dr. Bertrand Laratte is an Associate Professor and Lecturer at I2M, the institute for deconstruction and reconstruction in mechanics, and the Bordeaux campus of Arts et Métiers, the premier engineering institute in France, established 1780. Bertrand’s research in mechanical and environmental engineering uses life cycle assessment (LCA), materials flow analysis (MFA), environmental indicators, and cumulative impact assessment. Recent work includes dynamic modelling on material resources and recycling of steel, aluminum and electronics waste.

Jair Santillán‐Saldivar
Visiting scholar, 2018-2019, 2020
PhD candidate, CYVI Group for Sustainable Chemistry and Life-Cycle Assessment, University of Bordeaux
Supervisor at UWaterloo: Steven B. Young
Research: Jair's research aims to extend the scope of assessing the substitution and recycling potentials to cover functional materials used in healthcare services. The proposed assessment will be conducted in an integrated way by evaluating criticality and environmental sustainability considerations jointly using life cycle assessment.
His thesis is being developed in the framework of the University of Bordeaux Initiative of Excellence (IdEx) under the supervision of The CyVi Group and the University of Waterloo.

Amélie Thévenot
Visiting scholar, Winter 2017
PhD candidate, CYVI Group for Sustainable Chemistry and Life-Cycle Assessment, University of Bordeaux
Supervisor at UWaterloo: Steven B. Young
Research: Coupling material flows analysis and input-output tables. She is working with BRGM, the French Geological Survey, to develop innovative processes for resource management. The aim is to couple different methods to acquire knowledge about flows of basic metals in an economy (copper, aluminum, iron) and also precious metals (tungsten, dysprosium).
