Born in 1956 in Geneva, having completed my medical degree in 1981 in Geneva and my MD in 1985 in Zurich, I became neurologist and clinical neuroscientist in 1989, and obtained my university habilitation in 2000 at the University of Geneva. My teaching domain involved mostly under-graduate (3-5th year) clinical neurology, and post graduate behavioral neurology. Since 2010, I was a professor, (now Emeritus), of Neurology at the University of Fribourg. Here I combined clinical activity, teaching programs and research projects with the laboratory of cognitive and neurological sciences (lCNS). My research expertise tackles predominantly the fields of bilingualism, decision taking and social cognition. Recently I was involved in Patients Public involvement in neurology.
