CNS Laboratories (Some labs do not have public sites.)
-
The Carter Lab
-
Laboratory for Neuroeconomics (Glimcher Lab)
The work of our laboratory seeks to reconcile economically based models
of behavior with neurobiological theories of response generation. Our
long-term goal is to use economic theories of choice as a basis for
developing a biologically testable paradigm rooted in decision theory
and games theory that can replace traditional dualist notions of mind
and body.
-
Computational Neuroimaging Lab
(Heeger Lab)
The focus of our research is to use functional magnetic resonance
imaging (fMRI) to quantitatively investigate the relationship between
brain and behavior.
-
Visual Neuroscience Laboratory (Kiorpes and Movshon Labs)
The Visual Neuroscience Laboratory is devoted to the study of the function and development of the mammalian visual system, using behavioral, biological, and theoretical techniques.
-
Emotion, Memory and the Brain (Ledoux Lab)
How does the brain form memories of life's significant events? This is the question that motivates the research in our laboratory. More specifically, our work is focused on how traumatic memories are formed, stored, and retrieved.
-
Laboratory for Computational Vision (Simoncelli Lab)
Our laboratory studies the analysis and representation of visual information. The work is inherently interdisciplinary, requiring empirical study of the structure of visual environments, construction of mathematical theories for representation and processing of that structure, implementation and simulat ion of biologically plausible instantiations of these theories, and psychophysical or (through collaboration) physiological investigations designed to test these theories.
-
CoreVision
A joint project with the Center for Neural Science and the Department
of Psychology, CoreVision is a multi-platform framework for
performing many kinds of Psychophysics experiments.
-
NYU Memory Research Group
Programs associated with CNS
-
Center for Brain Imaging
The Center for Brain Imaging, jointly operated by the Center for Neural
Science and the Department of Psychology, supports research in brain
structure and function using a variety of methods including MRI and
fMRI imaging, EEG and ERP recording, and stimulation using TMS.
-
Center for Neuroeconomics
The Center for Neuroeconomics at New York University is one of the preeminent
institutions for the study of decision making and the brain. The Center
brings together faculty and students from NYU's world-class departments
of Neural Science, Economics and Psychology in classes, seminars
and research groups.
-
Center for the Neuroscience of Fear
and Anxiety
A multi-institutional research center funded by the National Institute of
Mental Health. Its goal is to understand how changes in the brain foster
and maintain pathological anxiety states, such as those occurring in panic attack and stress-related disorders, and to seek clues from basic research on the brain that could
lead to new treatments for these devastating conditions.
-
Sloan-Swartz Center for Theoretical Visual Neuroscience
Combines the strong scientific departments at NYU of CNS and the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences (CIMS) with the common goal of integrating as far as possible the research of theoreticians and experimentalists in the study of the brain.
