Marion Cousineau received her Ph.D. in Cognitive Psychology in 2010 from Université Paris Descartes and Ecole normale supérieure, where she worked under the supervision of Daniel Pressnitzer in the Laboratoire de Psychologie de la Perception.

Her dissertation was entitled “Psychophysical measurement of auditory sequence processing” and investigated the specificity of pitch sequences in normal hearing listeners and pitch-sequence impairment in cochlear implant listeners.

Until December 2014, she was a postdoctoral researcher at BRAMS, University of Montreal, under the supervision of Dr. Isabelle Peretz. In a two-year postdoctoral fellowship funded by the Fyssen Foundation she currently studies the neuro-functional origin of the pitch deficit in amusia.
