Lecturer of Master EdTech at Paris VII

Septembre 2014 - Aujourd'hui

cours Master M1-M2: Participative and Citizen Sciences.

Open Science allows citizens to participate in the scientific research process in different possible ways: as observers, as funders, by identifying images or/and analysing data, or by providing data themselves. This allows for the democratisation of science, and it is also linked to stakeholders' engagement and public participation.

In this course we will introduce the basis of how we could making an open science from the conception of the project, how people could contribute to this project, the basis of open licence, the use of open file formats to exchange or diffuse knowledge, and finally, open used and produced data.

Post-doctoral fellow at Inserm

​2010 - 2012

 

• Subject: Treatment of large quantities of data in the field of functional imaging of the brain, genomics, and scientific bibliography.

• Goals:

  • Design of data-mining and text-mining strategies for medical data

  • Design of new strategies for the processing of large masses of data

• Results:

  • Linking of multimodal MRI images obtained by different methods (networks of functional connectivity, cognitive networks, anatomical networks) and genetic expression maps.

  • Proposition of a new functional model that integrates these different sets of results of brain imaging and genetics.

Post-doctoral fellow at Lip6 (DEcision team), CREA, INRA

​2009 - 2010

​

• Subject: Robustness of agri-food process dynamics:

  • Analysis of the viability core and trajectories in the nucleus.

• Goal:

  • Development of a robustness calculation software of a viability tube based on the geometrical calculation of the distances of all viable system states over the border.

  • Modeling the problem of the viability of an agri-food product as a multiobjective optimization problem

• Results:

  • Geometric analysis of the viability core of the process of cheese finishing.

  • Modeling of an agro-food process as a multi-objective problem.

  • Design and development of data processing and optimization: evolutionary algorithms,and clustering.

  • Optimization of the agro-food process

​

Post-doctoral fellow at l'INRIA - CNRS

​2008 - 2009

​

• Subject: Development of multi-objective meta-heuristics for solving docking problems

• Goal:

  • Design of cooperative methods based on meta-heuristics.

  • Integration of the algorithms developed in the C++ ParadisEO software platform (paradiseo.gforge.inria.fr/).

  • Experimentation through applications of problems of molecular modeling: docking and 3D structure prediction.

• Results:

  • Design and integration of two meta-heuristics to the ParadisEO software: Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS) and Threshold Accepting (TA).

  • Design of hybrid method (VNS and evolutionary algorithm): application to the problem of molecular docking and prediction of the 3D structure of the proteins.

  • Participation in design and modeling of the multi-objective optimization module of ParadisEO platform.
