  1. Cognitive Neuroscience

  2. The neural basis of cognitive functions Language Perception Decision making Learning Memory Emotion Consciousness Attention We can now study high-level cognitive functions in the healthy human brain

  3. Neuroimaging The development of non-invasive neuroimaging techniques: • Functional MRI • Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) • EEG

  4. Unique to Tel Aviv University • Simultaneous recording of EEG-fMRI and EEG-TMS • Studying both brain function and brain structure • Developing new methodologies for brain imaging • Invasive electrophysiological recordings in patients – including single unit in humans • A new EEG center in the school of Psychological Sciences • We cover a great variety of cognitive functions

  5. Cognitive Neuroscience Labs at TAU • Prof. Naama Friedman: Neuropsychology of Language: developmental and acquired language disorders • Prof. Tal Siloni: Neural and cognitive basis of language processing: a psycholinguistic approach • Dr. RoniKatzir: Computational linguistics. Learnability of natural languages. Computer simulation of grammar. • Prof. LilachShalev-Mevorach: Neuropsychology of attention: cognitive and neural basis of ADHD • Prof. Dominique Lamy: The cognitive and neural basis of attention and consciousness

  6. Cognitive Neuroscience Labs at TAU • Dr. Ricardo Tarrasch: Effects of mindfulness on cognitive functions and dysfunctions • Dr. Roy Mukamel: Interaction between perception and action. Imitation and observational learning in healthy subjects and patients with motor deficits • Dr. Roy Luria: Mechanism for the updating and creation of representation in working memory • Prof. Yonatan Goshen: The cognitive and neural basis of memory: recall and recognition • Prof. Marius Usher: computational models of cognition: decision making

  7. Cognitive Neuroscience Labs at TAU • Prof. TalmaHendler: The neuro-behavioral dynamics of human emotional experience and their role in the cause and alleviation of mental disorders • Prof. Yair Bar-Haim: The neuro-cognitive basis of anxiety disorders. • Prof. YanivAssaf: Measuring brain micro-structure and neuroplasticity with MRI in human and rodents. • Prof. Galit Yovel: The cognitive and neural basis of high-level visual processing.
