Biography
I am a research software engineer at the Mathis lab of adaptive motor control. I just graduated from EPFL with a Master’s degree. I specialize in computational neurosciences.
I have a strong interest in understanding the internal models of the brain, related to higher processings such as learning or decision-making. More generally, I’m fascinated with how neurosciences and computer sciences are interlaced, each of those fields needing the other to progress. More specifically, with the development of powerful recording tools such as Neuropixels, I believe that the challenges of the field are now to develop the appropriate computational methods to find structure in that data.

Experience
I am working with Steffen Schneider (Ph.D. student) on implementing new functionalities to CEBRA, a novel method to map behaviors and neural activity by producing consistent latent spaces. My role includes:
- Joint modeling of auxiliary and time-series data code development and extensions.
- Maintenance of the existing code.
- Building data management & inference pipelines for models and code.
Semester projets in diverse laboratories of the School of Life Sciences:
- Mathis Laboratory of Adaptative Motor Control - Discrete Representation of Behaviors in a multi-agent dataset.
- Herzog Lab - Laboratory of Psychophysics - Modeling of Serial Dependency in Visual Perception.
- Gräff Lab - Laboratory of Neuroepigenetics - Functional Mapping of Remote fear memory extinction.
Skills
PyTorch, ML libraries
Learning and decision-making
Matlab, Java, C++, SQL
