I am Srdjan Vesic (Serbian: Срђан Весић), Research Director at CNRS (directeur de recherche), affiliated with the CRIL research centre in Lens, France.

My research focuses on Artificial Intelligence, more specifically on knowledge representation and reasoning, with a particular emphasis on computational models of argumentation. I develop formal methods for evaluating arguments and study how these methods can support decision-making in applications such as e-democracy, online debates, and legal AI.

I am particularly interested in how argumentation can contribute to explainable AI and improve the transparency and evaluation of modern AI systems. Part of my work is interdisciplinary, and I collaborate with psychologists and researchers in the social sciences to study how humans understand, evaluate, and interact with argumentative information.

My broader research interests include reasoning under inconsistency, preference modelling, and judgment aggregation. Outside academia, I enjoy music (I play the violin), salsa dancing, cycling, mountaineering and water skiing.
