  • Joe McGuire

    Associate Professor, Psychological & Brain Sciences
    My lab studies the cognitive and neural processes that facilitate human decision making. We are especially interested in how decision makers navigate challenging situations that involve delay, uncertainty, or volatility, or that seem to demand self-control. Our methodological toolbox includes behavioral experiments, computational modeling, psychophysiology, and functional neuroimaging.
  • Ann McKee

    Professor, Neurology & Pathology
    Dr. McKee completed her undergraduate studies at the University of Wisconsin and received her medical degree from the Case Western Reserve School of Medicine. She completed residency training in neurology at Cleveland Metropolitan General Hospital and fellowship training in neuropathology at Massachusetts General Hospital. She was Assistant Professor of Neuropathology at Harvard Medical School from […]
  • Maria Medalla

    Associate Professor, Anatomy & Neurobiology
    Prof. Medalla received her Ph.D. in Applied Anatomy and Physiology at the Boston University Department of Health Sciences in 2008, working with Prof. Helen Barbas to study the structure of ‘cognitive control’ pathways in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of non-human primates. Her studies in this lab were the first to utilize triple-labeling methods for electron […]
  • Pankaj Mehta

    Professor, Physics
    I am interested in theoretical problems at the interface of physics and biology. I want to understand how large-scale, collective behaviors observed in biological systems emerge from the interaction of many individual molecular elements, and how these interactions allow cells to perform complex computations in response to environmental cues. I started a blog that I […]
  • Jerome Mertz

    Professor, Biomedical Engineering
    Prof. Mertz's lab focuses on the development and applications of novel optical microscopy techniques for biomedical imaging. Some specific topics include imaging through complex media, imaging through a single optical fiber, and oblique back-illumination microscopy.
  • Philipp Mews

    Assistant Professor, Physiology & Biophysics
    The Mews Lab is pioneering research at the intersection of neuroepigenetics, metabolism, and neural plasticity in the adult brain, with an emphasis on substance use disorders. Our research builds on the concept that metabolic processes and the epigenome are deeply interconnected, influencing gene expression and behavior in profound ways. At the heart of our work […]
  • Heidi Meyer

    Assistant Professor, Psychological & Brain Sciences
    Our approach leverages behavioral, systems, and molecular neuroscience techniques to examine the cognitive and neurodevelopmental underpinnings of affective regulation. Our mission is to take a multi-level approach to neuroscience, setting a solid foundation in learning theory and behavioral assays upon which to apply ever-advancing neuroscience techniques to address a critical gap in knowledge regarding the […]
  • Tara Moore

    Professor, Anatomy & Neurobiology
    Prof. Moore received her B.A. in psychology from the University of Calgary and her doctorate in Anatomy and Neurobiology from this department in 2000. She is currently a co-investigator in the Laboratory of Cognitive Neurobiology with Profs. Rosene and Mortazavi. This laboratory investigates the effects of aging and age-related disease on the structure and function […]
  • Mark Moss

    Professor Emeritus, Anatomy & Neurobiology
    Together with Prof. Douglas Rosene, Prof. Moss is co-director for the Laboratory for Cognitive Neurobiology. His studies focus on the neurobiology of learning and memory in non-human primate models, particularly with respect to aging and age-related disease. Specific interests include (1) the interaction of the prefrontal cortices with the medial temporal lobe limbic system in […]
