Linda Scoriels
Ph.D, HDR
Maîtresse de conférences
Université Paris Cité
Linda est chercheuse au LaPsyDÉ et enseignante à l'Institut de Psychologie de l’Université Paris Cité. Elle a fait un Magistère de Génétique, suivi d’un Master en Neurosciences Cognitives à Paris entre 2002 et 2005. Elle a ensuite réalisé un Doctorat dans le département de Psychiatrie de l’université de Cambridge, en Angleterre, sous la direction de Peter Jones en 2011, suivi d’un premier postdoctorat. Puis, suite à l’obtention d’un financement « Jeunes talents » du gouvernement brésilien, Linda est partie à l’Université Fédérale de Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), où elle a réalisé son second postdoctorat, suivi d’un poste de maîtresse de conférences à la Faculté de Médecine de l’UFRJ.
À son retour à Paris, en 2021, elle a rejoint l’équipe Krebs à l’Institut de Psychiatrie et Neurosciences de Paris, où elle a été nommée directrice scientifique de deux essais cliniques multicentriques en France (PSYCARE) et contribue au programme national French Minds (PEPR-PROPSY) dédié à la psychiatrie de précision. Elle a récemment co-dirigé/encadré les thèses de Valeria Lucarini (2021-2024), Delphine Yeh (2023-2025) et Morgane Hericher (2024-actuel).
Ses travaux de recherche portent sur les déterminants biologiques et environnementaux des processus cognitifs, émotionnels et de construction du soi dans le développement et les troubles psychiques. Ils visent à mieux caractériser les trajectoires de vulnérabilité et à développer des stratégies de renforcement ciblées, notamment pharmacologiques et numériques, afin d’améliorer les processus cognitifs et émotionnels ainsi que le fonctionnement et la qualité de vie des personnes.
