Guillaume Girier holds a PhD in Computational Neuroscience, awarded cum laude in 2024, with a focus on investigating the excitatory thresholds of single-neuron models through an integrative approach combining computational modeling, simulations, and experimental validation.
He is currently a postdoctoral researcher in the Complex networks and brain dynamics group (COBRA) in Prague, where his primary focus lies in modeling epilepsy using neural mass models and detailed neuronal microcircuits. His research aims to uncover the mechanistic underpinnings of epileptogenesis and seizure dynamics by bridging theoretical frameworks with experimental data.
His overarching objective is to bridge computational modeling and experimental neuroscience to create a bidirectional framework where models inform experiments, and experimental findings refine the models. By establishing this iterative feedback loop, his work seeks to consolidate knowledge between theoretical and experimental approaches, enabling a deeper understanding of neural excitability and seizure dynamics.
