Vincent Taschereau-Dumouchel is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Addiction. A neuropsychologist and cognitive neuroscience researcher, his work aims to utilize machine learning and real-time neuroimaging to support clinical work in mental health. During his postdoctoral training, he contributed to the development of decoded neurofeedback, an innovative intervention method that combines machine learning with real-time neuroimaging. This approach allows participants to take control of brain activity patterns identified by machine learning.

His team’s research focuses on two main objectives: using this technology to develop new intervention approaches in mental health and better understanding the brain processes involved in the subjective experience of emotions to improve their role in anxiety disorders.
