About me

Postdoctoral researcher at LISN. I am currently working on the automatic extraction of relevant entities from Clinical Trial Reports (CTRs), such as PICO entities, chemical, disease and drug names. This project is supported by the CHIST-ERA grant CHIST-ERA-22-ORD-02, by the Luxembourg National Research Fund, by Swiss National Science Foundation, by the Agence Nationale de la Recherche, and by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council.

Researches and Interests

I’m interested in the nature of the exchanges between computer science and language science. Like many people, I think that these two disciplines have a lot to contribute to each other. This was one of the lines of thought of my PhD: Can we imagine that by a virtuous circle phenomenon, automated processing can refine the linguistic description at the same time as it allows to adjust the computer tools ?

My main areas of interest include ethics in NLP (particularly the study of biases and environmental impact), linguistic variation, crowdsourcing, and the creation of games with a purpose (GWAPs). During my PhD, I worked on le Défricheur, a gamified annotation platform designed to facilitate the annotation of puns created from multiword expressions in a dataset of tweets. For now, this platform is available only in French.
