I am professor of computer science at Université Toulouse Capitole in Toulouse, France, and I am affiliated to the Institut de Recherche Informatique de Toulouse (IRIT), where I am part of the Logic, Interaction, Language and Compuation (LILaC) team.
I mostly do research in Computational Social Choice, a research field at the interface between artificial intelligence and economic theory, with special focus on judgment aggregation, game theoretic models of voting, and social choice on social networks. My recent interest are in building bridges with the social sciences around problems of e-democracy as well as morality in AI.
Brief bio: I received my PhD from the University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in 2012, with a thesis on “Binary Aggregation with Constraints” supervised by Ulle Endriss, followed by a two-year postdoctoral contract at the University of Padova, Italy, in the group of Francesca Rossi. I started as assistant professor at the University of Toulouse Capitole in 2014, where I received my HDR (habilitation to supervise research) in 2021, and I got a professor position in 2023.
