Damien Huzard, PhD

Hi, I’m D. Huzard, behavioral neuroscientist. > I like doing and trying stuff. My main research interests are gravitating around the concept of Adaptation, Stress, social interactions, coping strategies which are linked to main physiological features, such as cardiac regulation and sensory-processing.

I am an expert in behavioral experiments with rodents.
I know Python analysis tools: Numpy, Scipy, matplotlib and Git.
I combine behavioral tests with physiological parameters, such as: ECG/HRV and Skin-Nerve recordings.

Here is my CV link.
