Research project title

The neuroanatomical substrates of complex human behavior

Research description

My research program explores brain-behavior relationships in humans.  I study neurological patients with focal brain lesions, and also use functional imaging methods (PET, fMRI), to study the neuroanatomical substrates of complex human behavior and cognition (e.g., memory, language, emotion, decision-making).  I also direct the Neuropsychology Clinic and conduct neuropsychological assessments of brain-damaged patients.
