\section { Teaching}
\label { sec:teaching}
\cvsecrule
My teaching spans most university years, starting from L1 (freshman
year) through to M2 (second year of the Master's program). I mostly
teach computer science and engineering at the \emph { licence} level
(approximately, bachelor), and mostly theoretical biology, network
biology, and bioinformatics at the Master's level. I have
a \textbf { CRCT} (approximately, \textbf { sabbatical} ) for the school
year 2023--2024.
The following tables briefly list the courses I teach, am in charge of
(marked with the sign $ \star $ ), or share the responsibility of (marked
with the sign $ \ast $ ), together with the typical teaching hours.
I only describe the time period after I obtained the current tenured
Maître de conférences --- Associate Professor position.

\subsection { Teaching and research}
\label { sec:teaching-research}
\cvsecrule
All Master's level courses I teach are directly connected to my
research. In the course \textbf { Computational DNA nanotechnology} , we
introduce the students to DNA self-assembly and its potential
applications, including applications in biology and medicine.
We directly overview the state of the project I share with Damien
\textsc { Regnault} to build a functioning pipeline for self-assembly of
DNA nanostructures, spanning the entire spectrum from theoretical
design to actual wet-lab production.
Both the courses \textbf { Computational Systems Biology \& Network
Medicine} and \textbf { Network Systems: Modelling and Analysis} focus
on another major pillar of my research: approaching the complexity of
biological systems using the tools of network science and discrete
dynamical systems. More concretely, in these classes we introduce the
students to the basics of graph theory, and then extensively discuss
two formal models of discrete dynamical networks---Boolean networks
and Petri nets---as well as show concrete applications for therapy
inference or setting up formal frameworks for thinking about the
origins of Life.
Finally, I use the course \textbf { Systèmes multi-agents}
(\emph { Multi-agent systems} ) as an opportunity to introduce the
students to emergent complexity of the living systems, made up of
simple entities interacting in complex ways. In this course, we
discuss different tools which can formalize multi-agent systems---in
particular membrane (P) systems---and propose several practical
assignments to help the students better understand the connection
between abstract objects and concrete systems.
Outside my normal teaching activity, I particularly appreciate
\textbf { Science Days} (\emph { Fêtes de la Science} ), which are always
an excellent opportunity to illustrate the hallmarks of my research to
school students and the general public. I have taken part in Science
Days every year, including during the pandemic when we held online
stands, and I have consistently invested a considerable effort in
organizing the stands.
Finally, even though my bachelor level courses are not in direct
connection to my research, I always necessarily bring in discussions
of complexity and even theoretical biology, to illustrate some
abstract concepts on the one hand, and to challenge the students and
push them out of their comfort zone on the other hand.
