Geula, Changiz
Research Professor of Mesulam Center for Cognitive Neurology and Alzheimer's Disease
Description of Interests
Our laboratory pursues several overlapping areas of research in the human brain, with additional investigations centered on non-human primate models, rodent models and cell culture systems. The specif... [more]
Glaser, Joshua
Assistant Professor of Neurology (Starting lab September, 2022)
Description of Interests
My lab develops interpretable machine learning methods to better make sense of large-scale and complex neural activity data, with a focus on analyzing populations of individual neurons. We are excited... [more]

Professor of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation
Description of Interests
I am interested in the functions and representations of the human prefrontal cortex. I am also interested in reward and motivation mechanisms in the context of social cognition and learning. Finally, ... [more]
Gratton, Caterina
Assistant Professor of Psychology (Relocating to Florida State University, August 2022)
Description of Interests
At every waking moment the human brain absorbs information, selectively filters it, and integrates it into perceptions and memories. When presented with the same world, we can effortlessly engage in m... [more]
Guemez-Gamboa, Alicia
Assistant Professor of Neuroscience
Description of Interests
The main goal of our lab is to understand how neural circuits assemble during development and disease. We are particularly interested on the genetic causes and cellular mechanisms related to circuit d... [more]
