Research

We use behavioral science, computational modeling, electrophysiology, neuroimaging, and noninvasive brain stimulation to uncover the large-scale causal mechanisms that drive perception and cognition in the healthy adult brain. We also study how these mechanisms deteriorate in neurodegenerative conditions such as mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease, as well as in psychiatric disorders like obsessive-compulsive disorder. Grounded in fundamental science, our lab develops targeted neuromodulation protocols to enhance, preserve, or restore cognitive function across both healthy and clinical populations.
