Yousri Marzouki received his PhD in cognitive psychology in 2007 from the University of Provence in France. His experimental approach to study the role of spatial attention in the identification of written words and letters allowed him to obtain the prestigious European grant for postdoctoral studies from the Fondation Fyssen in order to pursue his research at Tufts University in Boston.
He returned in 2009 to AixMarseille Université as an Associate Professor of cognitive psychology and statistical modeling applied to behavioral sciences. He is also a researcher in the CNRSaffiliated unit Laboratoire de Psychologie Cognitive and a member of the research federation 3C (Behaviour Cognition Brain) of the French National Committee for Scientific Research.
Yousri Marzouki is also affiliated with Qatar University since 2015 and he is currently conducting research on the relationship between attention, emotion and Consciousness. He developed in 2012, in collaboration with Olivier Oullier the Professor of Behavioral and Brain Sciences in Aix-Marseille University, a model called Virtual Collective Consciousness. The latter is considered a promising integrative framework to explain massive-scale online behaviors.
