Brief CV

• B.Sc. in biology and chemistry, Université Pierre et Marie Curie (Paris VI), France
• M.Sc. in computational biology, Université Joseph Fourier, Grenoble, France

I am currently a PhD student at the University of Montreal. My thesis addresses (i) plasticity of orientation tuning and (ii) binding by synchrony, in cat V1 (multiunit recordings). I kept from my M.Sc. some knowledge about models of synaptic plasticity.

Keywords: electrophysiology, vision, perception, primary visual cortex, orientation selectivity, adaptation, spike sorting, synchronization
