For those with a background in cognitive
psychology or related disciplines but little experience in fMRI, the CabezaLab
offers the opportunity to learn fMRI methods and to apply them to favorite
research topics
For postdoctoral students with a technical
background in biomedical engineering, computer science, etc., the CabezaLab offers
the opportunity to apply these technical skills to well-defined scientific
problems
Finally, for students with experience in both
cognitive neuroscience and fMRI research, the CabezaLab offers the opportunity to
expand this training to novel ideas and methods and to conduct cutting-edge
research on cognitive neuroscience of memory and/or aging
Many opportunities for collaborations and training
Potential collaborations and/or co-supervision
with a large number of brain and cognition researches at Duke (see Intellectual
Environment)
Numerous courses, seminars, and talk series on
cognitive neuroscience topics (see Intellectual Environment)
Typical annual plan
Conduct one fMRI study as principal investigator
(scanning fees paid by Dr. Cabeza's grants) and report its results in one
manuscript and one conference
Collaborate with graduate students and research
assistants in one or two fMRI studies and be a co-author in resulting
manuscripts and conference abstracts
