Laminar fMRI: Applications for cognitive neuroscience

The future of fMRI in cognitive neuroscience

Over the last 20 years, fMRI has revolutionized cognitive neuroscience. Here I outline a vision for what the next 20 years of fMRI in cognitive neuroscience might look like. Some developments that I hope for include increased methodological rigor, an increasing focus on connectivity and pattern analysis as opposed to "blobology", a greater focus on selective inference powered by open databases,...

Computational Cognitive Neuroscience and Its Applications

Cognitive neuroscience test reliability and clinical applications for schizophrenia.

Cognitive impairment has been a central topic in schizophrenia research for nearly a century and the past 30 years has seen an increasing focus on neurocognitive approaches. The vast majority of studies in this enormous research literature have utilized assessment methods borrowed from clinical neuropsychology. Those clinical tools have been useful in documenting clear evidence for this impairm...
