    About

    Biography

    Clara Fonteneau recently graduated with a PhD degree in Neuroscience from the University of Lyon in France, where she studied under the supervision of Dr MF Suaud-Chagny in the PSYR2 Team of the Lyon Neuroscience Research Center. Her thesis work focused on understanding the brain mechanisms underlying transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in healthy and clinical populations. More specifically, she investigated this question on a mechanistic level relating the impact of frontal tDCS montages to the dopaminergic system, combining tDCS with several imaging techniques (e.g., PET, resting-state fMRI, ASL, DTI).

    Her work focuses on translational approaches from computational models to multimodal neuroimaging in healthy controls and patients, specifically focusing on 1) common mechanisms across neuropsychiatric disorders (transnosographic approach) and 2) individual variability.
