Senior🎓
Top SchoolHanna Akl is a Paris-based AI researcher and PhD student with a decade of experience bridging neuro-symbolic methods, knowledge graphs, and NLP to enhance reasoning in large language models. She combines applied industry work—building NLP pipelines, ontologies, and production-ready AI features at Yseop—with academic leadership as a research professor and Chief Academic Officer shaping data science curricula. Her research focuses on logical reasoning, semantic web technologies and triplet relation extraction, supervised by leading experts at Inria, and she actively translates theoretical advances into practical ML/semantic web tooling. An educator and mentor, she teaches cloud computing and machine learning while recruiting and coaching faculty and students, bringing rare cross-disciplinary fluency between engineering, pedagogy, and research. Notably, she pairs formal ontology expertise with hands-on ML deployment experience, a blend that powers robust hybrid symbolic-neural solutions.
