Postdoctoral scholar
I am an engineer with a PhD in biomedical signal processing and a special interest in the intersection between neuroscience and AI, currently a postdoctoral researcher in the Mignot Lab. I received a BSc in Engineering Science (Computer Science), MSc in Biomedical Engineering, and PhD in Electrical Engineering from KU Leuven in Belgium. My doctoral research focused on developing automated sleep staging techniques that generalize across patient populations and recording conditions, with an emphasis on wearable EEG systems. I also investigated uncertainty estimation and explainability of these models. In my postdoctoral work, I am extending this line of research to explore the relationship between sleep and depression, and how this is influenced by medication use. My approach combines interpretable statistical and signal-based features with large foundation models to uncover meaningful patterns in sleep physiology.
