About

hello, world

I'm Damien, currently a postdoctoral researcher at User Experience Research Group from University of Lapland (Faculty of Art and Design) in Finland.

Previously, I completed a Ph.D. in cognitive computing and computer science (douple degree program) under the supervision of Charles Gouin-Vallerand from TELUQ University (Montreal, Canada) and SĂ©bastien George from Le Mans University (Laval, France). I received a scholarship from the National Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) of Canada and from the company Ohrizon.
