About

Work in the Cowell lab investigates memory and visual perception, and examines the neural underpinnings of these cognitive functions. We use computational models, functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) and behavioral studies of memory in healthy humans as well as in individuals with brain damage. We are also building a mathematical models of the BOLD signal measured in fMRI, in order to be able to "mine" fMRI data for more fine-grained information than it is currently possible to obtain.
