Current Projects
** Emotion/mood regulation: During a self-induced emotional imagery experiment, EEG activity was recorded and analyzed for differences between target emotion. Read more....
** EEG biofeedback : Self-regulation of EEG dynamics has long been claimed to be an effective therapeutic for disorders as varied as epilepsy, depression, chronic pain, ADHD and Parkinson's disease, Read more....
** Depression: This 200+ subject database from John J.B. Allen at the U of Arizona, Tucson is a wealth of information about young adults with various levels of depressive symptoms from current major depression to never-depressed individuals. Read more....
** Working memory (two-back task) : In this experiment, subjects were motivated by a monatery incentive and given performance feedback on each trial. We were interested in the cognitive effects of postive vs negative reinforcement. Read more....
** Spatial navigation: As a preface to the up-coming reality of mobile EEG, this task employed a virtual tunnel flow that was presented on a computer screen to subjects who were required to point back to their initial starting position at the end of each tunnel. Read more....
** 3D reaching: Neuroimaging experiments usually require participants to be rigidly still during recording because of artifacts caused by the physical displacement. Using the Biosemi Active II electrode EEG system, the effect of physical movement is minimal to non-existent Read more....
** Mismatch negativity: Decomposition of traditional ERP waveforms will provide a bridge between channel ERP research and independent component analysis. Read more....
