Justine Cléry, PhD
Justine Cléry, PhD, is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences at McGill University, the head of the Sensory and Social Brain Mechanisms (SSBM) Lab at The Neuro, and a research member of the Azrieli Centre for Autism Research (ACAR).
As a neuroscientist, her research aims to better understand how sensory information and social cognition is encoded in the brain using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in non-human primate models.
Prof. Cléry obtained her Doctorate in Neurosciences at the University of Claude Bernard Lyon 1 in 2017 under the supervision of Prof. Suliann Ben Hamed at the Institut des Sciences Cognitives, Lyon, France. From 2017 to 2021, she was a Postdoctoral Associate, working with Prof. Stefan Everling in the Laboratory for Neural Circuits and Cognitive Control at the Robarts Research Institute, University of Western Ontario, Canada.
She was awarded the BrainsCAN Postdoctoral Fellowship Tier II (December 2017-March 2021), BrainsCAN Postdoctoral Fellowship Tier I (April 2021-March 2022), CIHR Postdoctoral Fellowship (June 2021-March 2022), and Berthe-Fouassier Foundation Fellowship (September 2016-June 2017).
