Location and Resources:

 

The lab is currently located in Cresap Hall Rooms 315-320 in the Department of Psychology at Northwestern University.  Research facilities include access to the Center for Advanced MRI (CAMRI) located on the Chicago campus of the Northwestern Medical School, behavioral testing rooms and dedicated functional neuroimaging workstations both within the lab as well as in the Evanston Neuroimaging Analysis Center, a joint workstation cluster shared by several NU neuroimaging labs in the NU Brain, Behavior and Cognition area.

 

The Department of Psychology at Northwestern has an intellectually alive atmosphere.  Every year there are numerous speaker series, including the Social Brownbag, Cognitive Brain Mapping Group meeting, Cognitive Science talks, Cultural Evolution and Health, and Colloquium Series, to attend and participate in.  The NU department observes a strong interdisciplinary, inter-area approach to psychological science; students and faculty share a congenial and collaborative environment.
