- Research Director (Emeritus) at INRIA
in the Sophia
Antipolis Méditerranée Research
Center. I have created and directed the NeuroMathComp
Laboratory, a joint scientific venture between
INRIA and the JAD
Laboratory at the UNSA
until December 31st, 2015. I am now a member of
the MathNeuro
groups in Sophia Antipolis.

- In 2011 I started with Stephen Coombes the
Journal of Mathematical Neuroscience (JMN)
published by Springer, an Open Access journal
under the Golden model (authors pay
for publishing). The journal will
cease publication in December 2021 but
will remain fully searchable via the
SpringerOpen website. Since I was unhappy
with the Golden model I
decided to start another Open Access purely
electronic journal under the Diamond model
(neither the readers nor the authors pay). The
new journal is called Mathematical
Neuroscience and Applications (MNA) and
its webpage is hosted by the non-profit
organizatoin Episciences
- I am currenlly the Editor in Chief of MNA
- Current work, related interests:
- Computational neuroscience
- Mathematics for neuroscience: bifurcation
theory, stochastic calculus,
integro-differential equations
- Modelling of biological and machine visual
perception
- Main Current EC funded Project:
- HBP
(European Flagship):
Theoretical insights from mathematics can make
a valuable contribution to many different
areas of HBP research, from modelling of
low-level biological processes, to the
analysis of large-scale patterns of brain
activity and the formalisation of new
paradigms of computation. I am a partner
within SP4
(Theory).
- Former EC funded Project:
- BrainScaleS
(supported by the European Union seventh
Framework Programme): understanding function
and interaction of multiple spatial and
temporal scales in brain information
processing. This is a follow-up to the FACETS
project.
- NerVi
(ERC advanced grant): develop a formal model
of information representation and processing
in the part of the neocortex that is mostly
concerned with visual information.
- Mathemacs
(supported by the European Union seventh
Framework Programme): develop a mathematical
theory of complex multilevel systems and their
dynamics.
- My recent
publications.
- Award:
In December 2015 I received at ICCV15 the This
award is given to researchers in Computer Vision
who have made major contributions to the field
over their career and who have influenced the
field in an extraordinary way. Click
