PhD in Computer Science

I am currently an assistant professor at the Université de Toulouse III - Paul Sabatier. I am teaching at the MMI department of the IUT de Castres and conducting my research at Institut de Recherche en Informatique de Toulouse (IRIT). I defended by PhD thesis on "dynamic generation of critical situations in virtual environments: dilemma and ambiguity" in september 2018 at the Université de Technologie de Compiègne. My research areas are mainly : virtual environments for learning (VET) and knowledge-based systems.
