Autorenportrait

<div>Antonello Lobianco, PhD is a research engineer employed by a French grande école (polytechnic university). He works on the biophysical and economic modelling of the forest sector and is responsible for the lab models portfolio. He does programming in C++, Perl, PHP, Visual Basic, Python, and Julia. He teaches environmental and forest economics at undergraduate and graduate levels and modelling at PhD level.  For a couple of years, he has followed the development of Julia as it fits his modelling needs. He is the author of a few Julia packages (search sylvaticus on GitHub). </div><div><br></div>
