Biography
Jean Daunizeauholds a Bachelor of Science degree in psychology, and obtained a doctorate in physics from the Université de Montréal , as well as a doctorate in medical imaging from the Université Paris XI (Paris, France). From 2006 to 2009, he completed a first post-doctoral fellowship at the Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging (FIL, UCL, London, UK), under the supervision of Prof. Karl J. Friston. From 2009 to 2012, he completed a second postdoctoral fellowship at the Social and Neural Systems Laboratory (Dpt. of Economics, UZH, Zurich, Switzerland), under the supervision of Prof. Klaas E. Stephan. Since 2013, he has led a research group at the Brain Institute focusing on learning and decision-making.
Research
Jean Daunizeau co-leads the research team "Motivation, Brain and Behaviour" at Paris Brain Institute. He studies how the brain learns and makes decisions using neuroimaging, behavioural and computational means.
