To take a look at an (exciting!) ongoing project, check out here the CCF project!

I am a postdoctoral fellow jointly affiliated with the Réseau francophone international en conseil scientifique (RFICS) and the Centre de recherche sur la science et la technologie (CIRST), under the supervision of Professor François Claveau. Additionally, I serve as a postdoctoral researcher within the ENDURE project, under the supervision of Professor Philippe Bourbeau, and as a researcher on digital sovereignty with Professor Guillaume Beaumier at ENAP.

My research applies computational methods, natural language processing and machine learning, to analyze global issues ranging from international public health crises to climate change, digital sovereignty, and online radicalization. I specialize in developing research infrastructures that address interconnected global challenges through natural language processing and computational social science approaches.

My current projects include the CCF Database, a new resource of 266,000+ annotated climate articles using 60+ machine learning models to trace climate discourse evolution since 1978; the YOUPOL project, analyzing online political radicalization through transcribed YouTube content from francophone influencers; and contributions to digital sovereignty research examining AI governance and transnational data flows. Each project is designed to produce open, reusable resources that advance scientific understanding and practical solutions to global challenges.

I employ a range of computational methods, such as transformer-based models, automated text-annotation pipelines, and transcription tools, which I design and make accessible. My work seeks to bridge methodological innovation with applied policy analysis, with a particular emphasis on the ways science, evidence, and emotions shape policy responses to global crises.

September 20, 2025 On Saturday, September 20, I will be presenting with Alizée Pillod and Matthew Taylor at the PPSA & IRW Conference the core of our CCF project, including our dataset of over 250,000 annotated articles.
September 11, 2025 From September 11-14, 2025, I will be presenting three papers using NLP methodologies at the American Political Science Association (APSA) Annual Meeting. The first paper, presented on Thursday, September 11, assesses the credibility of Canadian public health agencies in the media. The other two papers, presented on Friday, September 12 as part of the Climate Change Framing (CCF) project, investigate how policymakers respond to scientists’ calls to action and how media frames on the topic have evolved in Canada since 1988.
