Summary
Youssouf Cherifi is a multidisciplinary postdoctoral researcher in Paris with 10 years of experience at the intersection of AI, signal processing, and behavioral neuroscience. He combines deep academic training (PhDs in Telecommunications/Computer Engineering and Behavioral Sciences) with hands-on applied work building embedded EEG systems, VR/AR experimental platforms, and real-time pricing systems for ride-hailing. His projects span neurophysiological signal analysis (EEG, fMRI), motion capture and eye-tracking synchronization, and practical deployment of ML-driven tools in both research and industry contexts. At Mines Paris he studies motor coordination disorders and how symptoms transfer in VR/AR, bringing together modeling, sensor integration, and experimental design. Notably, he has navigated both startup (Yassir) and hospital/academic environments, translating complex data into operational dashboards and regulatory funding applications. He’s comfortable bridging low-level embedded drivers to high-level AI models, making him effective at turning experimental prototypes into reproducible research and product-ready systems.
