I am a computational neuroscientist working in the neuromathcomp team at inria Sophia-Antipolis. My research focuses on the dynamics of contextual motion integration in the primate visual system, and their role in eye movements and motion perception. CV

Motion integration dynamics

Understanding the mechanisms involved in motion integration is the major axis of my current research.

Funding for this work was provided by the Région Provence Alpes Côte d'Azur as well as the facets and searise European projects.
