1. Cognitive Neuroscience

2. The neural basis of cognitive functions
Language
Perception
Decision making
Learning
Memory
Emotion
Consciousness
Attention
We can now study high-level cognitive functions in the healthy human brain

3. Neuroimaging The development of non-invasive neuroimaging techniques:
Functional MRI
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)
EEG

4. Unique to Tel Aviv University
Simultaneous recording of EEG-fMRI and EEG-TMS
Studying both brain function and brain structure
Developing new methodologies for brain imaging
Invasive electrophysiological recordings in patients – including single unit in humans
A new EEG center in the school of Psychological Sciences
We cover a great variety of cognitive functions
