Dr Yann Quidé is a Research Fellow at the School of Psychology, the University of New South Wales (UNSW) and an Affiliated Scientist in the Centre for Pain IMPACT at Neuroscience Research Australia (NeuRA).
Yann completed his doctoral studies at the University of Tours, France, where he specialised in the investigation of the early neurobiological alterations involved in the development of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Yann leads the neurobiological research stream within the Stress-related psychopathology research program at NeuRA with Prof Melissa Green, and the Neuroimaging, Neurobiology and Mental Health Program within the UNSW NeuroRecovery Research Hub directed by Prof Sylvia Gustin. In addition, Yann founded and chairs the ENIGMA Chronic pain working group.
Yann has a strong interest in understanding the role of stress and trauma in the development of physical and mental health conditions.
