Prof Patrick Haggard -- Motor control. Information processing underlying human action. Physiological indices of psychomotor performance. Action and Body
Prof Patrick Haggard
Nillie Attention and cognitive control
Prof Nilli Lavie
Prof Geraint Rees -- Visual attention and its relation to visual awareness, in both health and disease. Relationship between population measures of neural activity (e.g. fMRI) and those obtained from single cell electrophysiology.

Awareness
 Prof Geraint Rees FMedSci
Dr Leun Otten -- ERP and fMRI correlates of memory and attention processes. Cognitive Electrophysiology
Dr Leun Otten
Prof Masud Husain -- The major areas of research concern cognitive disorders following stroke. These include visual inattention and hemispatial neglect, disorders of visuospatial perception and visuomotor action, and, more recently, the role of medial frontal areas in cognition and action. Cognitive Neurology
Prof Masud Husain FMedSci
Dr Emrah Duzel -- Clinical Neurophysiology and Memory
Prof Emrah Duzel

Prof Neil Burgess -- 1. Investigation of the role of the hippocampus in spatial navigation and episodic memory: computational modelling and electrophysiological analysis of the function of hippocampal neurons in the rat, functional imaging of human navigation, and neuropsychological experiments on spatial and episodic memory. 2. Investigation of human short-term memory for serial order: computational modelling, functional imaging and psychological experiment. Space and Memory
Prof Neil Burgess FMedSci
Prof Sophie Scott -- The neurobiology of speech perception, including the functional sub systems in human auditory cortex, the evolution of speech, the difference between intelligibilty and comprehension, and profiles of recovery in aphasia. This relates to my work on dyslexia and processing of emotional information in the voice. I am also involved in a project looking at reading and rehabiliation in hemianopic alexia.
