Neuromodulation, decision making, and cognitive control
At the Center for Advanced Human Brain Imaging Research
Rutgers University
What we do
Our interests
- Why does thinking feel effortful?
- How do people decide to exert cognitive effort?
- How does neuromodulation alter the balance of cortical excitation to inhibition?
- What cortical dynamics support working memory and cognitive control?
- How are neuromodulatory systems altered in neurological and psychiatric disorders?
Our tools
- Computational modeling of behavior
- Transcranial magnetic stimulation
- EEG, fMRI, PET
- Pharmacology
- Eye-tracking & pupillometry
- Developmental & aging populations
- Healthy adults & individuals with neurological & psychiatric disorders
