Introduction

Our lab investigates human brain functions in health and disease using non invasive techniques. We use Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to image brain structure and functions. We also stimulate the brain painlessly and modulate its activity with Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS).

The lab comprises people with a wide range of backgrounds and with diverse expertise. This is reflected in the eclectic range of research projects performed in the lab and in collaboration with other, multidisciplinary labs. Research areas include:

Motor control in health and disease
Social cognition in health and disease
Neuromodulation
Interdisciplinary projects
