Introduction
My work as a research engineer mainly concerns human interactions, studied through eye-tracking methods. I am also in charge of developing a digital audio-visual device targetting dyadic and triadic interactions. The device will record simultaneously audiovisual and eye-tracking signals and will allow various modifications in the experimental design (temporal shifts, picture or video insertions, etc.).
My main area of research is visual selective attention (endogenous - exogenous interactions, resistance to interference...).
I am also interested in current debates related to grounded cognition.

General principles of a unified theory of cognition and its relationships with the brain are outlined, integrating insights from several existing theories and approaches. Structure, dynamics, and development of the neural/cognitive system are described. Cognitive Feature Detectors (CFDs) are the fundamental units: they have a (minimalist) semantic...
The authors tested a patient suffering from a circumscribed lesion of the right frontal operculum (FO) in 3 experiments of visual attention involving spatial orienting, maintenance of task-relevant priorities, and control of interference from new and old task-irrelevant items. The authors found that spatial orienting and active maintenance of prior...
