Cognition and Consciousness Imaging Group

Collaboration with the "Cognition and Consciousness Imaging Group" (sites.google.com/site/ccigcambridge), headed by Dr Emmanuel A Stamatakis, Division of Anaesthesia, Medical School, Queens College at the University of Cambridge.

Their interdisciplinary research aims to answer cognitive neuroscience questions by identifying patterns in the complex interactions between brain regions at rest or during goal directed behaviour. This includes work on network adaptive behaviours (reorganisation/plasticity) triggered by abrupt (e.g. trauma, stroke) or gradual structural changes (e.g. neuropsychiatric/neurodegenerative diseases, ageing) or pharmacological agents.
Research themes:

• Large scale brain networks in health and disease
• The default mode network and cognition
• Neurobiology of consciousness
• The neural basis of cognitive, behavioural and emotional outcomes following traumatic brain injury
