Thomas Vanvoorden
PhD Student
Thomas is a PhD student with a Master’s degree in Biomedical Sciences (Neuroscience option) from UCLouvain. He joined the CoActions Lab for his Master’s thesis in early 2024. His thesis aimed to investigate the causal role of the locus coeruleus norepinephrine system in regulating speed and accuracy during decision-making.
In October 2025, he began his PhD, which continues the work initiated during his Master’s thesis. His current project involves behavioral testing, transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS), pupillometry, electroencephalography (EEG), and the use of the Kinarm robotic system.
