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
