Dr. Jas completed his PhD from Telecom ParisTech. His thesis focused on automating MEG/EEG analysis pipelines. He is a proponent of open and reproducible science. He has been a key contributor to several open source
neuroimaging tools: most notably MNE-Python, MNE-BIDS, and HNN-core. He developed Autoreject, a tool for automatic annotation and repair of artifactual MEG/EEG data.
Currently, he is focusing on the development of next-generation MEG using optically pumped magnetometers(OPMs) and their application to new neuroscience problems.
