Researcher Profile

morgane aubineau

short-term fellow

Postdoctoral researcher and former lecturer in neuroscience and psychology, avid learner and brain passionate. Experienced in the field of neurodevelopmental conditions, from autism to giftedness, in a transdisciplinary approach. I spent the two last years reorienting my methodological approach to investigate brain development, from qualitative research to brain imaging. My objective for the next years is to start up my own research project to examine the neural architecture of individuals with exceptional cognitive abilities (typical or with neurodevelopmental conditions) and its relationship with curiosity.
