IU STARS Mentors - Cognitiv Science
Joshua William Brown: Studies the neural basis of cognitive control of behavior, using a combination of fMRI and computational neural modeling. Lab website found here.
Preston E. Garraghty: Behavioral neuroscience—electrophysiological, neuroanatomical, and immunocytochemical analysis of adult neural plasticity in cortical and subcortical structures; epilepsy and the behavioral effects of antiepileptic drugs on learning and memory in rats, rabbits, and humans.
Thomas James: Cognitive neuroscience. Using functional MRI we investigate the human brain regions involved in visual face and object recognition and multisensory (vision, touch, hearing) object recognition.
Michael Jones: Lab website found here.
Sharlene Newman: Cognitive Neuroscience - My research uses functional neuroimaging to study language and frontal lobe processes (problem-solving and planning primarily).
Matthias Scheutz: Agent-based computing, artificial life, cognitive modeling, foundations of cognitive science, human-robot interaction, and swarm intelligence.
William D. Timberlake:Biology and behavior—ecological and evolutionary analysis of learning, behavior systems, regulatory processes in appetitive behavior and ingestion, circadian and ultradian rhythms in feeding and drug abuse, time horizons, spatial control of locomotion, purposive behavior.
