Help us understand how brains develop!

At the LNCD, we use multimodal neuroimaging, such as fMRI, DTI, MEG, and PET, to characterize neurocognitive development during adolescence. Our research focuses on the brain circuitry that allows for higher-order cognition, including networks for voluntary response suppression and spatial working memory.
