Bio:

I am a permanent researcher with the CNRS and I work on the role of skin afferents in sensorimotor processes at the Laboratoire de Neurosciences Sensorielles et Cognitives (LNSC, UMR7260) in Marseille, France. We use single-unit microneurography to record from peripheral nerves in humans and relate this to central neural processes and behaviour. My current work is funded by an ERC Consolidator grant from 2019-2023 (ARTTOUCH). I have previously worked on touch using microneurography, neuroimaging, and psychophysical approaches with Prof.'s Johan Wessberg and Håkan Olausson (University of Gothenburg, Sweden), as well as prediction in sensorimotor control with Prof Graham R. Barnes (University of Manchester, UK). I completed my PhD in 2006 on sensorimotor inputs to the cerebellum with Prof Richard Apps at the University of Bristol, UK. For more information, please see :
