{%
\emph{Research Scientist/Bioinformatician} \\
Research scientist at the Genome Architecture laboratory
(\href{http://blog.thegrandlocus.com/}{Guillaume Filion}). \\
If all cells in a human body have the same genetic information, how come are
they so different? The short answer is:  they express different sets of genes.
For instance, red blood cells produce haemoglobin and neurons need neuroreceptors.
The goal of our team is to understand the mechanisms used by each cell type to
selectively express and repress their genes.\\
{\bf Research fields}: Computer science, artificial intelligence, statistics,
genomics and molecular biology. \\
{\bf Research projects}: gene regulation, HIV latency, 3D conformation of
chromatin, genome alignment and assembly.\\

{2013--2014}
{Applied Ocean Systems}
{San Diego, CA}
{%
\emph{Electrical Engineer} \\
Communicating underwater is hard. Transmitting live video streams over underwater
acoustic waves sounds almost impossible. In AOS we worked hard to design the
first underwater wireless device capable of transmitting ultracompressed video
through acoustic broadband OFDM. \\
{\bf Main responsibilities}:
  \begin{itemize}
    \item Reserach on cutting-edge underwater communication technology.
    \item Design of algorithms for acoustic signal synchronization \& Doppler compensation.
  \end{itemize}
}\\

{%
\emph{Research Engineer} \\
Marine biologists and oceanographers need high-tech tools to explore the sea.
Building them is the mission of the Autonomous Underwater Vehicle laboratory.
The mission of our team of three engineers was to design and manufacture unmanned
and remotely-controlled underwater vehicles, used in all sorts of scientific expeditions.\\
{\bf Main responsibilities}:
  \begin{itemize}
    \item Onboard hardware and software design for autonomous
      underwater vehicles.
    \item Research on communication technologies for underwater
      vehicles.
    \item Development of autopilot and sensor drivers.
