I am working mostly on touch and haptic interactions. My long-term goal is to bring haptics & neuroscience of touch to education.

After a degree in Physics at Free University of Brussels, I have completed a Master in computational neuroscience in Paris from EHESS,ENS, Paris 5 and an internship at the Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit in Cambridge. I wrote my Master thesis on the topic of attention and consciousness. During my PhD at Université catholique de Louvain, I studied the perception of natural textures and ultrasonic frictional feedback. In 2016, I became post-doc in the MINT team at INRIA Lille working on the subjective tactile perception during human-machine interaction. Since October 2017, I am now a post-doc in the Haptic Intelligence department at the Max-Planck institute in Stuttgart. My current projects investigate the finger behavior during 4D haptic interaction and the importance of timing for the perception of haptic cues.
