Using sophisticated model-theoretic tools, Hrushovski and Loeser have proved that the Berkovich analytification of a quasi-projective algebraic variety is locally contractible and has the homotopy type of a finite simplicial complex. This text is a survey of their work. We begin with a presentation of the model-theoretic notions involved (definability, types, etc.), and then give a sketch of their proof. At the end, we explain how one of their intermediate results can be applied to describe the pre-image of the skeleton of a torus under a finite map.
