Recent Work
In April 2012, I co-organize an international workhop entitled Messaging and Web of Data: Private meets Public (and vice-versa) during the WWW 2012 on April 16th, 2012, in Lyon, France. The workshop program is available here.
In February 2012, our Bubble-T Twitter experiment spun off into Bubble-VT and was on air during a TV Show “Le Grand Webzé” on a national broadcast channel, France 5. Project info on the IRI lab webpage and some photos are available here.
In December 2011, our Bubble-T Twitter experiment (What if Twitter can vote?) has been awarded and is available as a tab on the Youtube 2012 French elections channel. It was developped with Samuel Huron, Raphaël Velt, Yves-Marie Haussonne and myself for the Google Dataviz Contest. You can follow the discussion (i.e. Buzz) around it on Twitter or around the contest using #googleviz.
Since October 2011, I am a post-doctoral researcher at INRIA Saclay in the AVIZ Team working with Jean-Daniel Fekete.
Since July 2011, I started coordinating the Volunteers track at WWW 2012 16th-20th April 2012, Lyon, France.
Previously
From December 2010 until September 2011 I was post-doctoral researcher at LIRIS Lab and INSA Lyon (member of the database team (BD)) working on future usages of Email.

From October 2006 until December 2010, I prepared my PhD [V10] in Computer Science at LIRIS Lab in the DRIM (Distribution et Recherche d’Information Multimedia) team. My focus was on an N-tier architecture for Information Visualization. Using this architecture, I developed novel visual interfaces for text, image and graph visualisation.
