Miguel Alonso-Alonso, MD PhD

We study human eating behavior, nutrition and obesity in the laboratory. We use methods and tools from cognitive neuroscience, psychology, ingestive behavior and nutrition. We are particularly interested in understanding the neurocognitive basis of human...

George Alvarez

George Alvarez uses behavioral, computational, and neuroscience methods to understand how the visual system uses efficient encoding strategies to optimize the allocation of its limited resources. His research on this topic falls into four broad categories...

Mark Andermann

My lab is interested in how populations of neurons mediate online and offline processing of sensory information from the world and from the body.

Susan L. Andersen, Ph.D.

My research interests focus on understanding how early life events influence brain development with a particular emphasis on adolescence. Negative factors (early life stress) or positive ones (drug treatments) shape brain maturation and behavior. Our goal...

Anne Arnett

Dr. Arnett and her research team aim to improve precision medicine care for children and families affected by neurodevelopmental disorders. Dr. Arnett’s laboratory investigates brain-behavior associations leading to atypical neurodevelopment among...

John Assad

Our laboratory utilizes a combination of behavioral, electrophysiological, optical and computational approaches in mice to explore the neuronal mechanisms underlying the initiation of voluntary movements. Fundamentally, we are asking the question of what...

Darrick Balu

Dr. Balu and his Translational Psychiatry Laboratory use a wide array of cutting-edge tools (i.e., mouse genetics and viral techniques, biochemistry, molecular biology, immunohistochemistry, and behavior) to understand the neurobiological mechanisms that...

Mahzarin Banaji

My laboratory is a place where individuals gather with the common purpose of understanding social cognition and emotion as it resides outside conscious awareness and control. Our goal is to provide a basic understanding of the mechanics of implicit social...

Lorella Battelli

I am interested in dynamic vision and motion perception. My previous research has focused on the effects that a brain lesion to the associative visual areas has upon the ability to discriminate and integrate visual events. While this neuropsychological...

Elika Bergelson

I study how infants learn language from the world around them, and in particular how infants and toddlers learn words. We approach this by studying learners and their environments. Understanding the learner requires probing the early mental...

Jonathan David Bobaljik

My research generally asks the question: why are languages the way they are, both in the narrow sense of why specific languages have the properties they have, and also in the more general sense of investigating potential linguistic universals, and their...

Elizabeth Bonawitz

My research bridges Cognitive Development, Computational Modeling, and Education to inform our understanding of human learning. Specifically, I study the structure of children's early causal beliefs, how evidence and prior beliefs interact to affect...
