Biography

Jean Daunizeau, 42 y.o., holds a BSc in psychology, and obtained a PhD in physics from Université de Montréal (Montréal, Canada) and a PhD in medical imaging from Université Paris XI (Paris, France). From 2006 to 2009, he performed a first post-doctoral training at the Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging (FIL, UCL, London, UK), under the supervision of Pr. Karl J. Friston. From 2009 to 2012, he performed a second post-doctoral training at the Social and Neural Systems Laboratory (Dpt. of Economics, UZH, Zurich, Switzerland), under the supervision of Pr. Klaas E. Stephan. Since 2013, he is heading a research group at the Paris Brain Institute (ICM, Paris, France) focused on learning and decision making.

Research work

Jean Daunizeau is co-heading the Motivation, Brain and Behaviour neuroscience research group at the Paris Brain Institute. In brief, he studies how the brain learns and makes decisions using neuroimaging, behavioural and computational means.
