Attention | We are developing methods to quantify attentional performance based on whole brain functional connectivity and multivoxel pattern analysis. Our models can even predict ADHD symptoms from resting state scans.

Memory | We view memory as enduring traces of attentional processing, such that the study of attention and memory are tightly related.
