About Me

I’m Guillaume Le Goc, PhD in physics, currently looking for a post-doc in animal behavior, behavioral neuroscience/ethology/ecology, or a position in scientific support, data acquisition/curation/analysis.

Research Interest

My PhD project took place in Laboratoire Jean Perrin, CNRS/Sorbonne Université (Paris) in 2017–2021. Entitled Exploration of larval zebrafish internal states using temperature, it focused on the effect of the temperature on larval zebrafish locomotion and brain activity.

You can have a look at my manuscript here (pdf, in french) and my defense slides here (browser-based, in english, allow autoplay media or F to fullscreen).
