Biography
Dr Thibaut conducted her thesis with the Coma Science Group under the direction of Prof. Steven Laureys, at the University of Liege, Belgium (PhD in 2015), where she currently has a FNRS research associate position. She obtained her masters degree in Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation (2010) with a specialization in Neuroscience (2011) from the University of Liege in Belgium.
Her research focuses on non-invasive brain stimulation in patients with acquired brain injury trying to improve brain plasticity and facilitate their recovery. She is also working with neuroimaging and electrophysiology to objectify brain plasticity linked to the stimulation. Additionally, she is the leader of the treatment subgroup of the IBIA DOC-SIG with Drs. Caroline Schnakers and Nathan Zasler. She closely collaborates with Prof. Felipe Fregni and the Spaulding Neuromodulation Centre, Harvard Medical School, Boston, working on new non-invasive brain stimulation techniques to improve brain function by enhancing cortical activity and connectivity in diverse conditions such as concussion and chronic pain
