He joined the French National Scientific Research Center CNRS at Laboratoire de Génie Chimique in Toulouse in 1998 where was promoted research director in 2012. He was the Head of the French GDR CNRS Thermodynamic group from 2014 to 2020. His research field concerns modelling and simulation in process system engineering with a special focus on bridging molecular scales to macro and mega scales systems. Building upon Edgar Morin's paradigm of "la pensée complexe" and combining process system and model-driven engineering concepts with equilibrium and nonequilibrium thermodynamic principles, he addresses with a holistic approach the modelling of complex systems in areas related to engineering connected with macro economy, environmental and social sciences. Dr. Gerbaud co-authored the fourth edition of Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics with Dr. Demirel, and 6 book chapters, 100 research papers and his work led to 6 specialized software. He has contributed to promote innovative teaching and learning in engineering classes based on activities of e-learning, writing reflective portfolio and designing mind maps among others tools.ver menos
