Biography

Fabienne COLLETTE is Research Director (F.R.S.-FNRS). She is currently co-head of the GIGA-CRC Human Imaging research centre. She obtained a master degree (1993) and a PhD in Psychology (1998). During her career, she worked at the University of Liège and developed cognitive and neuroimaging (PET and fMRI) protocols to investigate high-level cognitive changes (executive and memory processes) in normal and pathological ageing. She mainly collaborated with Prof Martial Van der Linden, Eric Salmon and Pierre Maquet. Her research team takes an integrative approach to disentangle factors leading to successful or pathological cognitive aging, ranging from biology (e.g. genetic or sleep characteristics) to characteristics of daily life (e.g. the effect of physical activity or meditation practice). She more recently developed a research topic on fatigue and cognition across the lifespan and in neurological diseases. This research work is supported by various grants from University of Liège, F.R.S.-FNRS, Belgian federal and European agencies, and private foundations. She has also been invited speaker in several research centres in Europe and received two prestigious Belgian prize related to her research work in cognitive aging (Aline Fund from the King Baudouin Fundation and De Cooman Prize). She serves as a reviewer for several peer-reviewed journals and funding agencies.
