Bio sketch

 

I did my PhD in Sport Science (2001) at Grenoble University under the supervision of Pr V Nougier and Pr C Raphel. From there, I moved on to a post-doc at the "Balance and Spatial Orientation Group" (Imperial College - London) under the leadership of Pr AM Bronstein and Pr MA Gresty. In 2003, I was hired as Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Sport Science (Universite de la Mediterranée). I am now Associate Professor (Aix Marseille University - AMU) and head of the research team "Interactions Cognition Sensorimotricité" at the Institute of Movement Science where I study spatial orientation and sensorimotor control under various gravitational fields.
