Associate Professor at IGE at Saint Joseph University, holding a PhD in Computer Science from École Centrale de Lyon. As Head of the Applied Computer Science Department since 2019, I joined IGE full-time in September 2013. In addition to my academic and administrative responsibilities, I serve as the Educational Technology Liaison (Relais TICE) and the Continuing Education Delegate. Furthermore, I represented IGE on the Saint Joseph University Research Council from 2012 to 2019. Before joining Saint Joseph University, I worked as an e-learning Project Manager at INSA Lyon from 2002 to 2007, and as a lecturer at École Centrale and INSA Lyon from 1998 to 2002. I also taught at INCI, ESIB, and the Faculty of Science at Saint Joseph University from 2010 to 2013. My current research activities focus on developing platforms for the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) and middleware architectures for collaborative agents in IoT. I have published several scientific papers in renowned international conferences and am also involved in the development and evolution of IT applications for IGE.
