Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRomain Ligneul is a cognitive neuroscientist and principal investigator with nine years of research experience bridging neuroscience, cognitive science and AI across mice and human studies. Currently a researcher at INSERM and research fellow at the Champalimaud Foundation, he combines experimental neurobiology with computational approaches developed during postdoctoral and PhD work at the Donders Institute and CNRS. Trained at École normale supérieure and Lyon/Paris institutions, he pairs rigorous theoretical grounding with hands-on translational labs, from invasive animal work to human behavioural paradigms. His profile emphasizes adaptive control and decision-making mechanisms, reflecting a focus on how brain computations guide behavior and how those insights inform AI models. Less obvious: he moves fluidly between philosophy, biology and neurotechnology, enabling interdisciplinary questions and methods that span theory, experiment and computation.
