About Me
I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at the Phonetics and Phonology Laboratory (LPP – CNRS/Sorbonne Nouvelle) within the PASDCODE project.
My PhD research subject focused on the interaction between rhythmic structure and sense of agency in speech production.
Current research interests: speech motor control, speech rhythm, phonetic alignment, inter-speaker variability, speech signal processing, psycholinguistic
