Collaboratrice scientifique

I obtained my Master in Theoretical and Experimental Psychology at Ghent University (Belgium) in 2009. Then, in 2012, I obtained a Phd at Aix-Marseille University (France) on how cognitive strategies change with aging. I continued my research career at the University of Geneva (Switzerland), where I studied the mechanisms by which humans can keep information active in working memory. Today, I am partly working as a senior FNS researcher at the University of Lausanne, where I focus on cognitive functioning in centenarians, and partly at the University of Geneva, in the Working Memory team. My role in the team is testing a novel approach, originated in the domain of artificial intelligence, to uncover strategies in human cognition.
