Currently recruiting 2 postdoc fellows, 1 Ph.D student and 1 research assistant to work on research projects about the EEG/fMRI mechanisms underlying temporal cognition and their modulations using VR.

Le problรจme dรฉcrit ici (utilisation de gen AI pour faire de l'analyse de donnรฉes et poof en fait les donnรฉes รฉtaient hallucinรฉes depuis 3 mois), un cas d'รฉcole qui doit soulever deux questions :
- pourquoi personne n'a remarquรฉ รงa plus tรดt?
- s'il faut tout revรฉrifier, gagne-t-on vraiment du temps?
