I studied Biology at Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris. During the course of my Biology studies, I turned to cognitive sciences, spending a year working with hemineglect patients under the supervision of Jon Driver at University College London. I conducted a PhD with Stanislas Dehaene in Paris, studying the psychological and neuronal underpinnings of the Attentional Blink (2001-2005). I then pursued my work on the neural basis of conscious processingas a post-doc with Geraint Rees at UCL, and then with Catherine Tallon-Baudry and Lionel Naccache at Hopital de la Pitié Salpetrière in Paris. In 2012 I was appointed Assistant Professor at Université de Paris (formerly Paris Descartes), and in 2020 I obtained a full professorship at the same University.
