Mentor Areas
Research focuses on using neurosurgical recordings, neuroimaging and neuromodulation to study the human brain networks supporting memory and perception.
Description:
Research opportunities exist for analyzing direct brain recordings from human neurosurgery patients, during tasks of visual memory and perception. Specific projects focus on characterizing patterns of oscillatory brain activity, and single neuron firing patterns, associated with visual processing as well as memory encoding, consolidation and retrieval.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with time series analysis and basic programming (matlab/python/R) is advantageous. Prior courses in psychology, neuroscience and cognitive science beneficial.
