⭐ DPhil Projects: Our lab has broad interests, applying neuropsychological methods to open questions in cognitive neuroscience. We are especially interested in working memory, attention and motivation. Cognitive models of these functions generate testable neural predictions about what we should observe when neurotransmitters are modulated, and when specific brain areas are damaged. These predictions
Research interests
I use computational modelling and neural networks to understand how neurons produce mental processes like motivation and memory. My research group also uses EEG, fMRI and single-neuron data to compare processes in the human brain with neural networks. We ask how they are affected by disruptions to dopamine, acetylcholine, by Parkinson's disease, and damage to the frontal lobe.
