Presentation

I am post-doc at CBG. I am involved in the Plant Growth project from SystemsX.ch. I mainly try to model the gene regulatory network of the shade avoidance mechanism in the model plant Arabidopsis Thaliana. I also work on a pharmacogenetics project trying to identify genes involved in the cardio-vascular response to beta-adrenergic stimulation in mice.

My scientific interests include dynamical systems theory, self-organization, statistical learning theory and large-scale biological data analysis. For additional information, you can consult my web page.

I did my ph.D at the lasa (EPFL), where I worked on bio-inspired motor control and artificial cognition for humanoid robots. See this page for more details on this.
