Career

Kassel received her PhD under the direction of Yves Benoist at the University of Paris-Sud in 2009. Her thesis was on "Compact quotients of real or p-adic homogeneous spaces". She then entered the CNRS and worked at the Paul-Painlevé Laboratory of the University of Lille I until 2016, when she joined the IHÉS as detached CNRS researcher. [2]

Honors and awards

In 2015, she was awarded the CNRS Bronze Medal and an ERC starting grant the following year. [3] In 2018, she was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians at Rio de Janeiro; her lecture was on "Geometric structures and representations of discrete groups". [4] She was named MSRI Chern Professor for Fall 2020. [5]
