Philippe Gabriel Michel (born January 23, 1969 in Lyon ) is a French mathematician and professor at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL).

Michel studied from 1989 at the École normal supérieure de Cachan with the degree in 1993 and received his doctorate in 1995 at the University of Paris-Süd in Orsay with Étienne Fouvry (Autour des conjectures de Sato-Tate). After completing his habilitation in 1998, he was a professor at the University of Montpellier and from 2008 at EPFL.

He deals with analytical number theory (e.g. exponential sums, sieving methods), arithmetic geometry, automorphic functions and representations, L-functions and ergodic theory in number theory.

In 2012 he became a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society and in 2011 a member of the Academia Europaea . In 2006 he was invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Madrid (with Akshay Venkatesh : Equidistribution, L-functions and ergodic theory: on some problems of Yu. V. Linnik). In 1999 he received the Peccot Vimont Prize and held the Cours Peccot at the Collège de France . From 1999 to 2004 he was a member of the Institut Universitaire de France. In 2009 he received an ERC Advanced Grant.
