Aurélie Pistono

I am interested in connected-speech production in typical populations and following cognitive impairment. More precisely, I aim to better characterise the mechanisms driving connected-speech fluency and coherence.

Short bio

I did my PhD under the supervision of Jérémie Pariente and Mélanie Jucla at the Toulouse Neuroimaging Center and Octogone-Lordat lab on discourse production in typical aging and Alzheimer's disease. Following my PhD, I worked with these two labs on an fMRI project focusing on language networks at rest and during connected-speech production. I was then awarded Marie Skłodowska Curie fellowship and a BOF fellowship at the Department of Experimental Psychology at Ghent University, in the Hartsuiker lab, where I study how speech planning, speech monitoring, and speech execution interact.
