|
77 Gaël Varoquaux is a researcher in computational science at INRIA, |
|
78 in the Neurospin research institute (Paris, France). His research |
|
79 activities include statistical and computational techniques for |
|
80 probabilistic modeling of intrinsic brain activity using functional |
|
81 imaging. He has a strong interest in making advanced data-processing |
|
82 techniques available across new scientific fields. For this purpose, |
|
83 he favors the development of easy-to-use, inter-disciplinary, |
|
84 open-source, scientific software, with a focus on the Python language. |
|
85 Varoquaux has a PhD in quantum physics, is a graduate from Ecole Normale |
