About me
UZH was my academic home for many years — I completed my PhD here at IMRG and later stayed on as a postdoc at the Digital Society Initiative (DSI), always keeping close ties with the IMRG group. Today, my main affiliation is with the University of Lausanne (UNIL), but I remain closely connected to IMRG and occasionally co-supervise theses here.
Please note that this page is not updated frequently. For the most current information, please visit my personal website or the lab's website at UNIL: DINO Lab at UNIL.
