Summary

The Kuperberg Lab uses multimodal imaging techniques to investigate when and where the build-up of a gestaldt takes place in healthy individuals and in patients with schizophrenia. We have a number of ongoing projects that use event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), Event-related potentials (ERPs) and magneto-encephalography (MEG) to examine how we build up meaning in reading sentences, short stories and watching movies.

Funding

Dr. Kuperberg is supported by NIMH (R01 MH071635; K23 MH02034), NARSAD (with the Sidney Baer Trust) by the Institute for Mental Illness and Neuroscience Discovery (MIND).
