UNC Science Expo
Cohen Lab members taught kids (and adults) about the brain at the UNC Science Expo this past Saturday.
Our segregation and integration paper published today in The Journal of Neuroscience!
Our new paper, a collaboration between Dr. Cohen and Dr. Mark D’Esposito at UC Berkeley, was published today in Journal of Neuroscience. You can find a summary here. We found that brain network organization can dynamically reconfigure when cognitive demands change, and that the balance between segregation into distinct brain networks and integration across multiple brain networks is dependent on the specific cognitive requirements of a task. The more participants were able to achieve the optimal balance between segregation and integration, the better they did on the tasks!
Our new lab space in Howell Hall is open for business.
Howell Hall has been newly renovated to house the Human Neuroimaging Group labs, equipment and testing rooms. Stop by to visit us in room 123!
Dr. Cohen’s research is featured in Carolina Scientific Magazine.
The Carolina Scientific Magazine, a semesterly publication that focuses on exciting innovations in science and current research at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, has featured Dr. Cohen’s research. Please find the full article here, by undergraduate student Carrington Merritt, starting on page 38.
