The first two papers produced by my lab, the Brain Lesion and Neuromodulation Laboratory (BLNL), are finally published! The first, "Cognition Disconnected," is available now via open access in Cerebral Cortex: academic.oup.com/cercor/arti…

Cognition disconnected: the influence of domain-general cognition (g) in lesion-deficit mapping

Abstract. Lesion-deficit mapping is a premier technique for dissociating neural correlates of cognitive functions. However, the contribution of domain-gene

I'm really grateful for this: I just received my first NOA from the NINDS! This K23 will support my neuromodulation research and foster my career development as I build a career and lab at the intersection of lesion-deficit mapping and neuromodulation.

We compared the ACI for these patients to patients who underwent independent neuropsychological exams (INEs), and we found that the ACI was significantly higher on average in the INE group.

There are likely many reasons for this difference, and there is still a ton of work left to do to validate the ACI (e.g., establish cutoff scores, etc.), but this represents an important first step toward the first measure of validity in informant ratings of personality change

Shout out to Lara Sozer on her very first peer-reviewed publication! She is applying to graduate schools in neuroscience this year. She quickly picked up skills in programming and high performance computing to help push this project across the finish line.
