Research in the Gratton Lab explores how the human brain flexibly coordinates goal-directed behavior with perception and memory, using advanced neuroimaging techniques. Our work centers on functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), with a particular focus on precision fMRI—an approach that deeply samples individuals to precisely map brain networks and cognitive processes at the individual level. While fMRI is our primary tool, we also incorporate complementary methods such as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and patient studies.
Recent projects investigate variability in brain networks, the role of control-related regions in the frontal and parietal lobes, and changes in these processes with brain aging.
Our principal investigator is Dr. Caterina Gratton.
