Ph.D student
Paris Cité University
After completing my engineering studies at the École des Mines de Saint-Étienne, I obtained a master's degree in Bioimaging - Health Engineering at ESPCI PSL, during which I joined the Institute of Psychiatry and Neurosciences in Paris to carry out my final internship. The subject focused on the effect of electroconvulsive therapy on brain networks constructed by diffusion MRI, in treatment-resistant severe depression.
My Ph.D., supervised by Professor Arnaud Cachia and Professor Catherine Oppenheim, revolves around the development of biomarkers for cerebral plasticity in psychiatry, using network analysis and graph theory based on diffusion MRI data.
