Biography
I am a professor at the department of Psychology of University of Montreal and the principal investigator of the laboratory for brain simulation and exploration (SIMEXP) at the Montreal Geriatrics Institute (CRIUGM). I recently joined Mila - Quebec Artificial Intelligence Institute as affiliated member, and I supervise students in computer science (cognitive computational neuroscience) at DIRO, University of Montreal.
My main research interest is to train artificial neural networks in order to jointly mimic individual human brain activity and behaviour. To achieve that goal, I lead an intensive effort of individual data collection in neuroimaging (fMRI, MEG), the Courtois project on neuronal modelling (CNeuroMod).
I am a Senior FRQS chercheur boursier, a member of the Quebec alliance for Unifying Neuroscience and AI (UNIQUE), the leader of Digital Health at CRIUGM, co-lead of the data management platform at CRIUGM and the associate director for neuroinformatics of the Functional Neuroimaging Unit (UNF) at CRIUGM.
