Chevillet's undergraduate studies were specialized in optoelectronics, and participated in research involving polymer optical waveguides, ultrafast laser spectroscopy and computational/theoretical atomic physics.  He also spent a year with a small company developing diffractive optics for use in a holographic printing system, and a summer working for a partner company in the UK where he printed the master hologram used for the 2001 Royal English Census security label. Chevillet spent 2 postgraduate years Johns Hopkins University where he simulated the effects of anesthetic agents in computational models of the thalamus in order to study the mechanism of general anesthesia. Chevillet is also mentored by Dr. Maximillian Riesenhuber. His thesis work is investigating auditory object recognition with a particular interest in speech recognition and possible similarities between auditory and visual processing.
