Cognitive and Perceptual Neuroscience Research Topic
RCBB members working on the Cognitive and Perceptual Neuroscience research topic conduct research that advances our understanding of human cognition, brain function, and behaviour across domains including:
- memory
- perception
- motivation
- language
- creativity
- decision-making
Focus areas are:
- ageing and dementia
- spatial and numerical development
- visual attention and working memory
- creative cognition
- disordered eating cognitions and behaviour
- effort and engagement
- impulse control
- reading and language development
Research projects conducted by the group frequently use neuroscientific and psychophysiological methods like:
- electroencephalography
- functional near-infrared spectroscopy
- impedance cardiography
- pupillometry
- transcranial magnetic stimulation
- transcranial ultrasound stimulation
