CIBM MRI UNIGE Cognitive and Affective Neuroimaging Section

Jonathan Wirsich completed his  M.Sc. in Computer Science from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in 2013 and obtained a Ph.D. in Neuroscience from Aix-Marseille University (CRMBM, Prof. Maxime Guye) in 2016.  From 2016 to 2018, Jonathan was Postdoc in the CONNECTlab (Beckman Institute, Prof. Sepideh Sadaghiani) at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and in 2019,  he became a research scientist in the Epilepsy and Brain Networks group (Prof. Serge Vulliémoz) at the Geneva University Hospitals.

Appointed by CISA in March 2023, Jonathan Wirsich is research staff scientist and  the 3T MRI operational manager in the CIBM MRI UNIGE Cognitive and Affective Neuroimaging Section.

His research focuses on fusion of multimodal data such as simultaneous EEG-fMRI and diffusion MRI to better understand the dynamic and static properties of whole-brain networks. Within the CIBM, he is happy to share his passion for multimodal neuroimaging and open science in the context of cognitive neuroscience, by supporting scientists from experiment setup to data analysis.
