Research Interests
Functional neuroimaging and cognitive neuroscience: We utilize magnetoencephalography (MEG) and electroencephalography (EEG) to image brain dynamics during the processing of sensory input and performance of various memory tasks. Our focus is on developing and applying analysis methods that reveal and characterize network phenomena in the normal and abnormal human brain. We are particularly interested in the participation of limbic structures and cerebellum in cognitive brain networks. Recently we have initiated several research projects that utilize stereotactic transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to induce transient changes in network function. This effort is conducted in collaboration with colleagues in central Finland.
