Featured Labs:
Coffey Lab (Audition, Sleep & Plasticity) focuses on neuroplasticity associated with complex tasks, using musicianship (and its interaction with language) as a model.
Li Lab (Laboratory for Adult Development & Cognitive Aging) investigates healthy aging with a multidisciplinary approach. We aim to understand the interactions among cognitive, sensory, and motor abilities in old age.
Phillips Lab (Cognition, Aging, and Psychophysiology) explores adult human neuropsychology and the neuropsychology of aging, with an emphasis on integrating cognitive, neuropsychological, and brain-imaging measures of brain function.
