    Principal Investigator

    Olivier Collignon

    Research associate FNRS; Ass.Prof.UCLouvain

    Olivier is interested in understanding how (changes in) our multisensory experience shapes the architecture of our mind and brain.
  • Caterina

    Postdoc

    Caterina Pedersini

    WBI.IN

    Caterina is interested in human brain plasticity. She integrates DTI and fMRI to explore how structural connectivity shapes brain functions following sensory deprivation and sight recovery.

  • JM_2022-800×1308

    Postdoc

    Jacek Matuszewski

    FSR; UCLouvain; F.N.R.S.

    Jacek is interested in factors that shape functional and structural brain organization, underlying perception and language processing in multiple sensory modalities, including their interactions with training or sensory deprivation during development.

    Postdoc

    Siddharth Talwar

    EOS, UCLouvain

    Siddharth is interested in studying the impact of cross-modal plasticity on uni / multi-sensory mechanisms in sight restored and cochlear implant users, using M/EEG.
  • Tanisha

    Phd Student

    Tanisha Arya

    FRIA – F.N.R.S.

    Tanisha is interested in how the brain perceives and represents emotional and social information across multiple sensory modalities, including in populations with sensory deprivation.

  • Yufeng_CPPwebsite

    Phd Student

    Yufeng He

    CSC-WBI

    Yufeng is interested in how to combine fMRI and TMS to probe how cortical specialisation is maintained in sensory deprived populations.
  • Eleonore-800×713

    PhD student

    Eléonore Giraudet

    FNRS; UCLouvain

    Eléonore is interested in understanding the processing and conceptualisation of olfactory information, as well as the mechanisms of brain plasticity in the absence of olfactory input.
  • Marie-ange-Azoury

    PhD student

    Marie Ange Azouri

    UCLouvain

    Marie- Ange is investigating the auditory speech perception in prelingually cochlear implant users as well as how sign language would impact on language and auditory perception in CI users.
  • YingPic-800×533

    PhD student

    Ying Yang

    UCLouvain

    Ying is interested in studying crossmodal numerosity and whether (or not) there is a supramodal representation of numerosity in the human brain.
  • Version 3

    PhD student

    Marco Barilari

    EOS; UCLouvain

    Marco is interested in studying the functional reorganization of the visually deprived brain using high-field neuroimaging.
