introduction

Hello, welcome to my home sweet home page (well, not so cosey I'd like it to be, but this will do for the moment ;). My working time is mainly shared between teaching computer science and doing research in bioinformatics.

Teaching

Most of my teaching is performed in the Polytech engineering school. I also participate to the bioinformatic courses of the Computer Science Dept in the Science Faculty. Uniersity Montpellier is currently preparing a 2-year Bioinformatic program at Master's level for students of various origins (biology, health, computer science, mathematics...) to open in September 2011.

Research

Current research is performed in phyogenomics, ie from a computer science point of view, dealing with nice combinatorial and statistics problems on trees in the context of databases containing zillions of trees.

Panorama

Here you can find the unconscious tree of my research activities:
