Research

I am currently working on

network medicine   complex systems   theoretical biology

I have already worked on:

bio-inspired computing   formal languages   rewriting   complexity   biomodelling

I have worked with these (and similar) formal models:

Boolean networks   Petri nets   membrane (P) systems   register machines   reaction systems

I am interested in formal and abstract structures, as well as various applications of them.

Publications

A comprehensive list of my publications is available on my DBLP page. A list of my publications with some freely downloadable full-texts is available on HAL (a French scientific archive).

I used to sometimes post informal scientific articles on The Open Science Door.

Teaching

Here is a list of courses I prepared, in chronological order:

• introduction to membrane computing, with David Orellana-Martín and Ricardo Graciani, E-mail me for the password
• introduction to LaTeX in French, password: ppp-l3
• operating systems in French, password: sye-l3
• a very quick introduction to artificial life
• Petri nets for biomodelling
• introduction to Cytoscape
• To Git or Not to Git
• Haskell for Life
• operating systems and networks
• basic parsing

Seminars

Here is a short list of some of the seminars I delivered and liked most, with slides.

• Sequential Reprogramming of Biological Network Fate [slides]
• Theory of Computer Science: Why All That Formal Stuff? [slides]
• Universality and Computational Completeness of Controlled Leftist Insertion-Deletion Systems [slides]
• Object-oriented Programming for Biomodelling [slides]

These materials are distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution Alone licence.

Programming

I am currently learning Racket, a modern Lisp dialect. In the past, I wrote many lines of Haskell, C++, and Python.

Here is my GitHub profile.

Administration

I am in charge with the freshman year in Computer Science (L1 informatique) until July 2020.

I co-organise with ADIEVE the Évry site of the yearly night hackathon Nuit de l'Info.

I am member of the Council of IBISC laboratory, as well as the teaching workgroup of the Administrative Council of Digital Ressources (CARI pédagogique) at my university.

Past positions

• 2016–2017: Postdoc with Nicolas Glade on biomechanical modelling of the cytoskeleton, with additional focus on unconventional computing, theoretical biology, and epistemology.
• 2015–2016: ATER at Université Paris Est Créteil.
• 2012–2015: PhD student at Université Paris Est Créteil, supervised by Sergey Verlan. I defended my thesis entitled "On the Power and Universality of Biologically-inspired Models of Computation" in June 2015 (presentation slides).
