 After a PhD in particle physics, Pablo Achard did research in computational neurosciences. Since 2009, I work at the University of Geneva’s Rectorate where he is in charge, among others, of strategic planning and foresight. In this context, Pablo developed and implemented the university’s MOOC program in 2013, with 5 MOOCs produced the first year. Pablo recently published the book “Les MOOCs, cours en ligne et transformations des universités” at the Presses Universitaires de Montréal.
