I am a CNRS Directeur de recherche. From January 2011, I work in the Laboratoire d'Informatique Gaspard-Monge at the University Paris-Est Marne-la-Vallée, where I belong to the AlgoB group.

Previously I worked in the Laboratoire d'Informatique Fondamentale de Lille in the SEQUOIA group, affiliated with the INRIA Lille - Nord Europe research center. In 2008-2010, I was with the French-Russian J.-V.Poncelet Lab in Moscow.

My general field is Theoretical Computer Science, but my research subjects evolved over time. During last years, I have been doing research in the area of discrete algorithms: combinatorial algorithms, algorithmic complexity, algorithm design and engineering. I am also particularly interested in bioinformatics, especially in algorithmic methods of biosequence analysis. Please consult my research page for more information.

I participated in the development of mreps and YASS software for DNA sequence analysis, and path software and ReBLOSUM scoring for protein sequence comparison. I also participated in the development of the Norine database.
