About Julien

I am interested in the neural underpinnings of sensory perception (hearing, vision and touch), which I study using a range of neuroimaging techniques, from EEG, MEG and intracranial EEG to structural and functional MRI. 

Prospective PhD students can find my available PhD projects here: https://www.plymouth.ac.uk/schools/psychology/phd-studentships
