Iris Menu

Ph.D

Associate professor

Paris Cité University

Iris is an Associate Professor in Developmental Psychology and Neuroscience at the Université Paris Cité. After obtaining a Master's in Developmental Psychology, she completed a PhD at LaPsyDÉ under the supervision of Prof. Arnaud Cachia in 2022. She was then a post-doctoral fellow at New York University, School of Medicine, with Dr. Moriah Thomason.
Her research aims to integrate different data modalities (brain, genetic, behavioral, and environmental) using statistical tools derived from applied mathematics (network analysis, structural equation modeling, machine learning) to better characterize cognitive development and learning.
She is particularly interested in early factors, especially preterm birth, that may play a role in neurocognitive development.
