 doctor and computer scientist with a dual background in systems neuroscien
 ce and machine learning algorithms. After training at RWTH Aachen Universi
 ty (Germany)\, Université de Lausanne (Switzerland) and Harvard Medical Sc
 hool (USA)\, he completed one Ph.D. in cognitive neuroscience (Research Ce
 nter Juelich\, Germany) and one Ph.D. in computer science in machine learn
 ing statistics at INRIA Saclay and Neurospin (France). Danilo currently se
 rves as Associate Professor at �鶹ɫ��Ƭ's Faculty of Medicine and as Canada 
 CIFAR AI Chair at Mila - Quebec Artificial Intelligence Institute\, Montre
 al\, Canada\, including cross-appointments at the McConnell Brain Imaging 
 Center\, Montreal Neurological Institute\, Ludmer Centre for Neuroinformat
 ics and Mental Health and the School of Computer Science at �鶹ɫ��Ƭ Univers
 ity. His interdisciplinary research activity centers on narrowing knowledg
 e gaps in the brain basis of human-defining types of thinking\, with a spe
 cial focus on the higher association cortex in health and disease.\n\n\n\n
 	Katie Lavigne\n\n	Katie Lavigne is an Assistant Professor in the Department
  of Psychiatry at �鶹ɫ��Ƭ and a Researcher at the Douglas Resear
 ch Centre\, where she also leads the Douglas Open Science Program. She rec
 eived a PhD in Neuroscience in 2018 from the University of British Columbi
 a and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Neuro and Douglas Researc
 h Centre in 2023. Her research focuses on cognitive dysfunction in psychia
 tric disorders\, “from EMA to MRI”\, including developing open-source digi
 tal tools to improve cognitive assessment\, measuring cognitive variabilit
 y using ecological momentary assessment (EMA) and identifying mechanisms o
 f cognitive dysfunction with multimodal magnetic resonance imaging and com
 putational neuroscience techniques.\n\n
