Brief Research-Oriented CV
I received a Ph.D. in Computer Science in 2006 for my work on query languages over Web data. I did my doctoral research at Inria in France, with a personal Ph.D. grant from the french ministry of research. I also did research at IBM Watson in New York. I defended my Ph.D. in December 2006 in front of an impressive jury before leaving to EPFL for a post-doc in 2007. The same year I was awarded some scientific prizes and tenured researcher positions. Since then I am researcher at CNRS, member of the WAM research team and then the Tyrex research group at LIG and Inria in Grenoble, France. I received an HDR in 2014.
