Hello and welcome to my personal website!
My name is Nelly Barret and I am a post-doctoral researcher in the DEIB department of Politecnico di Milano. I work in the BETTER project with Pr. Pietro Pinoli and Anna Bernasconi. This project aims at integrating very heterogeneous health data, including clinical data, genomic data, imaging data and disease data. Seven centers across Europe participate in this project, whose final goal is to provide a decentralized healthcare system to run analysis (statistical, and AI-based) on different data (possibly across centers) to better understand rare diseases.
Previously, I was a PhD student at Inria Saclay, under the supervision of Pr. Ioana Manolescu in the CEDAR team, a joint team between Inria and École Polytechnique. My thesis was about user-oriented exploration of semi-structured datasets. Before my thesis, I graduated from Université Lyon 1 where I obtained my Master in Artificial Intelligence.
Finally, I wish to become an associate professor (MCF) in fields I appreciate: heterogeneous data management, database systems, data integration, GIS (geographic information system), all possibly being AI- and/or LLM-flavoured. Dynamic and hard worker, I'm always ready to take on new challenges!
I will apply for the Qualification in Oct. 2024, thus I will be actively looking for an academic position in/around Lyon (FR) starting from 2025!
