Dr Tim Dalgleish
I am broadly interested in affective neuroscience in relation to clinical depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). I am particularly interested in mental control and emotion regulation in these conditions and the psychological and neu...
Dr Jeff Dalley
Primary research interests include behavioural and cognitive neuroscience, psychopharmacology and neuromodulation of limbic cortico-striatal brain circuitry. Specific interests include behavioural and neurobiological endophenotypes in experimental...
Dr Anthony Davenport
Our research group focuses on understanding the role of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs, targets for about ~50% of current drugs) together with their transmitters in humans. We use in vitro pharmacology and in vivo imaging using positron emissi...
Dr Greg Davis
Consciousness, 'Free Will'
Visual attention, visual cognition, abnormalities of precortical vision in autism and schizophrenia
Dr Matt Davis
My work is interdisciplinary, combining diverse methodologies from Cognitive Neuroscience to investigate the neural mechanisms involved in spoken and written language comprehension. I work on a range of topics, including speech perception, lexical...
Dr Bazbek Davletov
Secretion of neurotransmitters and hormones is under tight control in our bodies and abnormalities in this process can lead to various neurological and endocrine disorders. Neurotransmitters and hormones are released when secretory vesicles fuse w...
Dr Mario de Bono
We seek to understand how neural networks are assembled, function and evolve.
C. elegans is a powerful system to study neural circuits. The worm has exactly 302 neurons each of which can be identified. EM reconstructions have identified synapti...
Professor Anthony Dickinson
My primary research interests concern learning, memory, motivation, and future planning in both humans and animals. My interest in learning and memory is focussed on the distinction between goal-directed and habitual instrumental behaviour as asse...
Professor Christopher Dobson
Our group is investigating the molecular origins of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Disease, that are characterised neuropathologically by the presence of amyloid fibrils. The aim of our research is to understand ...
Dr Robert Dudas
I have carried out research projects on cognitive impairment in the context of progressive-degenerative dementias and affective symptomatology.
My current research focuses on the neurobiology of emotional dysregulation and self-harm in the affect...
Professor John Duncan
Brain basis for attention, intelligence and cognitive control; including studies of normal cognition and behaviour, impairments following brain damage, functional brain imaging, and single cell electrophysiology.
For John Duncan's popular science...
Dr Richard Dyball
The neuroendocrine cells in the hypothalamus control all reproductive and homeostatic mechanisms. Using mainly electrophysiological methods, we study how the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus ("the biological clock") and its inputs from ...
