Professor Clemens Kaminski
We develop advanced microscopic imaging techniques that permit us to elucidate molecular mechanisms of neurodegeneration.
We use techniques such as lifetime, spectrum and polarisation resolved imaging that inform on protein misfolding, aggregat...
Dr Ragnhildur Thora Karadottir
My lab’s interests are neurotransmitter signalling to oligodendrocytes and their progenitor cells, in both health and disease.
Oligodendrocytes produce myelin (in the CNS), which speeds the propagation of the action potential. When the myelin s...
Dr Napoleon Katsos
I am interested in how developmental research can inform theoretical linguistic inquiry and vice versa. My particular focus is in the area of semantics and pragmatics, and in language learning by monolingual and bilingual children as well as child...
Professor Keith Kendrick
I am a Systems and Behavioural Neuroscientist using behavioural, neurophysiological and computational approaches to understand how neural networks are organised to control recognition and responses to social and emotional cues. l am investigating ...
Professor Barry Keverne
Professor Keverne has long standing experience in behavioural neuroscience and has, in the past 10 years, brought molecular genetic techniques to focus on brain development and investigate how genetic perturbations of the brain influence brain fun...
Professor Roger Keynes
Growth cone repulsion is an important mechanism controlling axon growth. During development it guides axons by excluding them from repulsive regions of the embryo. Following injury to the adult brain it may also block axon regeneration, with major...
Dr James Kirkbride Ph.D.
I am a psychiatric epidemiologist interested in the causes of schizophrenia and other major psychotic disorders from an environmental perspective. I am a member of the EpiCentre group within the Department of Psychiatry. I am particularly interest...
Dr Aleksandr Kogan
My lab investigates the prosociality and well-being from biological, psychological, and cross-cultural perspectives. In particular, we are highly interested in cooperation, trust, altruism, positive emotions, close relationships, happiness, physic...
Dr Maksym Kopanitsa
There are good reasons to believe that phenomena underlying synaptic plasticity are very important in the formation of memories. It is especially evident in the hippocampus, the part of the brain which is critical for spatial memory. For example, ...
Dr Anna Korhonen
Computational neurolinguistics, the application of natural language processing techniques to aid research in cognitive neuroscience, computational lexical semantics and comceptual structure- Dr Mark Kotter
My group is interested in the biology of adult CNS stem and precursor cells in the context of disease. A particular focus lies on mechanisms of CNS remyelination, a stem/precursor cell-mediated process in which new myelin sheaths are restored to d... 
Dr Nikolaus Kriegeskorte
- visual object recognition
- pattern-information fMRI
- computational modelling
- species relationships
Dr Dina Kronhaus
My research is focused on studying connectivity and neural re-organisation, in the human brain, using theoretical modelling techniques to complement analysis of experimental data. I aim to identify overlapping yet distinct neural circuits implicat...
Dr Markus Kuhn
I am interested in information-theoretic and signal-processing aspects of neural physiology, in models of human perception and learning, and in computer architectures specifically designed to execute biologically plausible models of neural networks.
