where I lead the NeuroMathComp
Laboratory, a joint scientific venture between INRIA, the ENS (computer
science department), and the JAD
Laboratory at the UNSA.
- Short vita.

- Teaching:
- Main Current Projects:
- FACETS:
create a theoretical and experimental foundation for the realisation of
novel computing paradigms which exploit the concepts experimentally
observed in biological nervous systems
- NerVi:
develop a formal model of information representation and processing in
the part of the neocortex that is mostly concerned with visual
information.
