I am a Postdoctoral researcher (F.W.O. fellow) at the Artificial Intelligence Lab of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel. I am also affiliated with the Machine Learning Group (Université Libre de Bruxelles). I am interested in how life, and (much more) specifically, humans, cooperate, coordinate, and (self-)organise in an increasingly complex and hybrid human-AI world. I do that by combining concepts and methods from (Evolutionary) Game Theory, Behavioural economics, and Machine Learning. To increase the reach of these methods to other scientific fields, I created EGTtools a Python/C++ toolbox for Evolutionary Game Theory.
