T.D. Tran
I am Trung Dung, an assistant professor at the Faculty of Psychology and Neuroscience, UM. My academic journey sent me from my home country, Vietnam, to residing in Belgium where I have been gaining expertise in (bio)statistics. Beyond the academic realm, I find joy in family moments, playing with my kids, and the keyboard (a "sibling" of a piano), etc.
