Brain, Mind and Consiousness Lab
Department of Cognitive Science
The Brain, Mind and Consciousness laboratory investigates high-level
cognitive processes using brain imaging (fMRI), behavior and
introspective reports. We are particulary interested in areas of
overlap, as well as seperation, between psychological processes
involved in social cognition, mechanical reasoning, attention and
self-awareness.
Our work is informed by neuroscience, psychology and philosophy. The laboratory is situated in the new and unique transdisciplinary Department of Cognitive Science, and part of the Cognitive Neuroscience Initiative, at Case Western Reserve University. We are involved in collaborations across the University and beyond, including the Department of Neurology in the Medical School, the Department of Organizational Behavior in the Weatherhead School of Management, and the departments of Communication Sciences and Philosophy in Arts and Sciences.
