Genevieve Caumartin​

Me

I am a Software Engineering PhD student and a Senior Software Developer with over 20 years of experience in the Aerospace industry. The love of learning new subjects in technology brought me back to academia to pursue research on AI-related subjects.

I am driven by curiosity and a passion for technology, seeking to bridge the gap between cutting-edge research and real-world applications.

Research Interests​

Given the latest Artificial Intelligence technology and its potentially huge impact on our industry, I am focusing my research on AI for Software Engineering, in particular Agent Systems assisted by large language models.
