I joined the UQAM Computer Science Department in january 2020. Before that, I was Directeur de Recherche at LAAS-CNRS and deputy director of the Computer Security GDR, a virtual lab encompassing all Computer Security academics in France. My current main research interests lie in applied cryptography for privacy protection, essentially via the use of homomorphic cryptography, and that can be applied to a variety of applications, from mobility to genomics and beyond.
