About me:

I defended my PhD in the Hybrid Team at IRISA/Inria Rennes. My research activity is devoted on the field of Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs), with a focus on SSVEP-based BCIs. During my phD, I carried experimental evaluations in order to better understand the influence of several factors on BCIs, and the resulting user experience. Based on this new knowledge, I also proposed new approaches and interaction techniques to improve the usability of SSVEP-based BCIs.

I am currently looking for a post-doc, with a strongest orientation toward machine learning.

Research Interests:

Brain-Computer Interfaces
Human-Computer Interaction
Machine Learning
