Muhammad Kaiser Abdul Karim My research involves oligodendrocytes and its progenitors which I derive from human pluripotent stem cells through forced expression of key transcription factors, a method called forward programming. My goal is to use these cells to study oligoden...
Dr Paul Bays In order to interact with the world, our brains construct and sustain their own internal representations of it. Our aim is to understand the nature of these representations and the computations the brain performs on them to achieve behavioural goa...
Gesa Sophia Borgeest I'm a PhD student working with Dr Rogier Kievit in the executive processes group at the MRC CBU. I use psychometric techniques in large-sample, multimodal, longitudinal datasets to address how the human brain ages. Specifically, I am investigating...
Dr Paula Buttery The application of natural language engineering techniques to augment neuro-imaging analysis and experimental design.
Mr Lukas Cincikas I am currently investigating the effects of atomoxetine on decision making in healthy people as well as patients with Cocaine Use Disorder. The Cambridge Gambling Task is the principle way of quantifying these effects, and I'm using Bayesian model...
Professor Marek Czosnyka Brain Physics summarizes physical interactions between volumes, flows and pressures in brain. Measurement, data processing and analysis, forecasting and modeling of various cerebral phenomena as autoregulation of CBF or pressure-volume compensatio...
Charlotte Garcia My PhD research has been focused on developing and validating a diagnostic tool called the Panoramic ECAP (PECAP) method that uses various electrophysiological measurements of neural responsiveness through cochlear implants (these are called Elect...
Ms Juliet Griffin I study the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying the formation and stubborn persistence of delusions and other psychotic symptoms in psychiatric illnesses like schizophrenia. I am interested in how the brain uses uncertain information (parti...
Dr Rebecca Jackson In my British Academy fellowship, I am building a computational model of semantic cognition that includes both representation and control processes. I am linking this model to the semantic network within the brain to demonstrate the cortical seman...
Dr Kamila Jozwik Broadly I'm interested in the following questions:
How does the primate brain process visual information?
More specifically - how does the primate brain recognise objects?
What are the underlying computations of visual processing?
I use fMRI, ...
Tilman Lesch My research is focused on human cognition and brain mechanisms relevant for learning and decision-making under uncertainty. I’m interested how personality factors such as impulsiveness or novelty seeking are related to individual’s decision-making...
Bingjiang Lyu My research interests lie in the cortical mechanisms and dynamics involved in language comprehension using EEG/MEG and fMRI. Currently I am working on how the incremental processing of speech is affected by contextual information embedded in sente...
Dr Amy Orben Amy’s research uses large-scale data to examine how digital technologies affect adolescent psychological well-being and mental health. She uses innovative and rigorous statistical methodology to shed new light on pressing questions debated in poli...
Charlotte Rae I am a cognitive neuroscientist, investigating the structural and functional brain networks that support human voluntary action. The process of initiating voluntary movements, and then stopping or changing our actions, relies on interactions betwe...
Dr Lisa Saksida We are working toward a better understanding of the psychological processes underlying memory and perception through a programme of theoretically-driven experimental research using both healthy subjects and brain-damaged populations. Research in m...
Dr Li Su I lead Artificial Intelligence and Computational Neuroscience group (http://www.aicn-group.com) and Alzheimer's Research UK (ARUK) East Network Centre. I am Chair of Neuroimaging in Neuroscience Institute at University of Sheffield and ARUK Senior...
Dr Andrew Thompson I am an experienced neuroscientist / pharmacologist with exposure to a broad range of techniques. This has included the development of a simple and information-rich fluorometric microplate assay for simultaneously identifying novel agonists, antag...
Dr Georgios Varsos My focus has been on modelling of brain haemodynamics, particularly describing a terminal situation of cerebral circulation, associated with ischemic strokes. A new methodology was created which can be used for estimating brain’s zero-flow pressur...
Dr Andrew Welchman I am interested in how the brain brings together information from the senses to support perception and interaction with the rapidly changing world. Work in my lab integrates psychophysics, movement recording, modelling and brain imaging techniques...
Mr Samuel White I am working for a PhD in the Galliano Lab, studying neuronal plasticity in the olfactory bulb.
I am using electrophysiology and a range of histological and imaging techniques to study the induced homeostatic changes of plastic cellular and subcel...
Dr Noham Wolpe I am an Academic Clinical Fellow in the Department of Psychiatry.
My broad interest is in the interplay between cognition and action in humans. More specifically, my previous work has been on volition, perception of action and cognitive contribut...
