The European University NeurotechEU

After obtaining a master's degree in journalism in the public and private sectors, at the University of Lille, I began my career in the international relations office as part of my internships. I got my first contract when I was still an international student before the merger of the 3 university of Lille in 2018. Since 2017, I have been working as Communication officer for International relations.

My first work experience in the international development department was in 2018, as part of the first pilot call for the European Universities Initiative. I am now involved in European projects, in particular as a communications officer with the NeurotechEU Alliance, as part of the “WP5 Impact and Dissemination” working group.

After obtaining a Master's degree in European project management and learning about international cooperation at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, I am now in charge of international mobility at the University of Lille, and more specifically NeurotechEU mobility for staff and students. 

Within NeurotechEU, I am part of the Work Package 3 “Empowering learners and Staff” dedicated to mobility and opportunities for training, courses, conferences and other events at partner universities.

With a Masters in Influence and Reputation and a specialisation in political and public communication, my experience has led me to work on influence strategies, reputation management and the dissemination of information to a variety of audiences. 

Within NeurotechEU, I contribute to promoting and developping the project. I contribute to the visibility, dissemination and strategic communication of NeurotechEU at both local and international levels. I co-lead the Work Group Communication under Work Package 5 “Impact and Dissemination” where I take part in the dissemination and stakeholder engagement strategy, as well as the Work Package 1"Management and Coordination" where I work alongside my colleagues to ensure the coherence and effectiveness of the actions implemented at consortium level. 

At the national level, I participate in the network of communicators from French universities involved in European alliances (GT-UEFR), contributing to collective reflection on communication strategies for EU-funded initiatives. My main goal is to strengthen internal and external communication in order to raise NeurotechEU's visibility among different audiences.

Within NeurotechEU I am involved in the “WP3 Empowering Learners and Staff”. 

Associate Professor specializing in neurotechnologies, virtual and augmented reality, brain-computer interfaces, and computer science, I am involved in the “WP4 Common policies and strategy development”.

University Professor of Cell Biology and Developmental Biology, Vice-Dean for International Relations at the Faculty of Science and Technology (2017-2022), Vice- President for Pedagogical Innovations (2022-2025), Vice-President of Internationalisation of Study Programmes (2025-present day). Within the project, I am coordinating the Work Package 3 "Empowering Learners and Staff" and I am also involved in the Work Package 2 “Interdisciplinary Knowledge Creation”, regarding the coordination and writing of the Innovative Pedagogy handbook.

As NeurotechEU Project Manager for the University of Lille my responsabilities are to identify, implement and monitor integrative projects with a European and international dimension: Europeanisation and sustainable internationalisation of training, exchanges, research-based programmes, actions covered by Erasmus+ and other European, binational or international programmes.

Since 2022, my contribution to NeurotechEU has been to represent ULille in the Work Package 1 “Management and Coordination”:management and coordination, finance, reporting, internal communication, monitoring and quality management. I am also keen to support the Work Package 5 “Impact and Dissemination” on measuring the impact of NeurotechEU. 

In France, I'm part of the network that brings together French project Managers from different European university alliances (GT-UEFR).

For over thirty years, I have devoted my research to Alzheimer's disease and tauopathies, making major contributions to our understanding of the tau protein, neurofibrillary degeneration and their pathophysiological implications, using innovative experimental models.

As Director of International Mobility, I joined the NeurotechEU alliance on the international mobility side at the same time as I started my new position.

My involvement in the “WP3 Empowering learners and Staff” working group is also a way for me to work with the other partner universities in the alliance on a real strategy for mobility in the neurosciences, facilitating other types of mobility, such as intensive hybrid programmes and virtual mobility in the disciplinary fields surrounding neuroscience.
