I'm a PhD student at Laboratoire Methodes Formelles (Ecole Normale Supérieure Paris Saclay, CNRS) under the supervision of Alain Finkel and Stephane Le Roux since 2023.
PhD topic: Formal models for consciousness : from subjective experience towards cognitive algorithms.
Get a quick understanding of my PhD by watching my presentation at the Saclay finale of "Ma thèse en 180 secondes" ("My PhD in 180 seconds") where I won the price of the jury. View the video here.
