---|---|---|---|---|
Almor, Amit | Psychology | Memory and Language in the Mind and Brain | CBN | Maybe |
Arjmandi, Meisam | Communication Sciences and Disorders | Dr. Arjmandi's research combines behavioral, computational, and neuroimaging techniques to systematically investigate the mechanisms and factors influencing the auditory, speech, and language development in individuals with typical, impaired, and electric hearing, focusing mainly on individuals with cochlear implants. | CBN, NND | Yes |
Bezuidenhout, Anne | Philosophy, Linguistics | I investigate how linguistic (especially semantic and pragmatic) information is represented in the brain, as well as the cognitive processes of the speakers and hearers who use this information in verbal communication. | CBN | Yes |
Booze, Rose | Psychology | The behavioral and neurobiological effects of viruses (HIV-1 and COVID-19) in the brain | CMN, CBN, NND | No |
Bradshaw, Jessica | Psychology | The development of attention and motor skills in infancy and implications for the early detection of autism. | NND | Yes |
Christian O'Reilly | Computer Science and Engineering |
My research aims to understand how the brain works through computational neuroscience (modeling), neuroimaging, and analyses of biosignals. |
CBN, NND | Yes |
Consagra, William | Statistics | I focus on developing statistical and machine learning methods for neuroimaging data analysis. | CMN | Maybe |
Decker, Scott | Psychology |
My research area focuses on the transdisciplinary application of cognitive-neuroscience to guide diagnostic assessment approaches used in schools to identify children with neurodevelopmental learning disabilities. |
NND | Yes |
den Ouden, Dirk | Communication Sciences and Disorders |
The Neurolinguistics lab studies the neurobiology of language and language disorders from a linguistic perspective, focusing on syntax and phonology. Students interested in the Aphasia Lab can express their interest via this online form. |

Neuroplasticity underlying relapsing depression, aversive response, and brain stimulation |
CMN, CBN | Maybe |
Fridriksson, Julius | Communication Sciences and Disorders |
Research in the aphasia lab focuses on the neural basis of aphasia recovery as well as cortical organization of speech and language. Please do not email Dr. Fridriksson directly. Students interested in the Aphasia Lab can express their interest via this online form. |
CBN | Maybe |
Fu, Xiaoxue (Jessie) | Psychology |
1) Cognitive and neural functions underlying attention and executive function. 2) How do these neurocognitive functions develop and influence learning and socioemotional outcomes |
CBN, NND | Yes |
Green, Jessica | Psychology | Multisensory perception and attention using EEG | CBN | Yes |
Grillo, Claudia | Pharmacology, Physiology & Neuroscience, School of Medicine | My lab is interested in studying novel neurocircuits that regulate food, with the ultimate goal of identifying new targets to treat eating disorders. | CMN, CBN | Maybe |
Harrod, Steven | Psychology | Operant conditioning experiments: drug self-administration; sucrose-maintained responding | CBN | Maybe |
Herter, Troy | Exercise Science | Neural mechanisms that underlie learning, performance, and recovery of visuomotor skills in healthy and clinical populations. | CBN | No |
Hogan, Abigail | Communication Sciences and Disorders | My research focuses on understanding predictors of anxiety (e.g., physiological regulation, temperament) as well as the impacts of anxiety on social communication in young children with autism spectrum disorder. | NND | Yes |
Hollis, Fiona | Pharmacology, Physiology & Neuroscience, School of Medicine |
The Hollis lab studies the role of brain mitochondrial function in neurodevelopmental and psychiatric diseases. |
CMN, CBN, NND | Maybe |
Hudac, Caitlin | Psychology |
My lab uses cognitive neuroscience (EEG/ERP, fMRI, eye tracking) to track the development of the social brain and develop biomarkers associated with genetic etiologies of neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g., autism spectrum disorder). |
CBN, NND | Yes |
Jasnow, Aaron | Pharmacology, Physiology & Neuroscience, School of Medicine |
The Jasnow Lab studies how neural systems and circuits support fear learning and memory, and the development of inappropriate fear responses related to anxiety and stress-related disorders. |
CMN, CBN | Yes |
Kalinski, Ashley | Biological Sciences |
We study the role of the immune system during traumatic nerve injuries Contact lab technician Julianna Bennett to inquire about research opportunities |
