BHI/CAHBIR Virtual Seminar: Kai Hwang In a series of studies, we examined how the network properties of the human thalamocortical system support behavior and cognition. We first investigated the spatial organization of thalamic task-evoked responses using fMRI data from human subjects who performed a rich battery of tasks encompassing a broad range of cognitive processes. …
BHI/Otolaryngology Faculty Candidate Seminar Children who experience persistent conductive hearing loss (CHL) early in life often display binaural hearing impairments that persist long after CHL is resolved, suggesting abnormal central auditory development. Abnormal sensitivity to interaural level differences (ILDs) is particularly likely as a CHL (such as an ear infection) can attenuate sound in the …
BHI-RUCARES Autism Faculty Candidate: Melanie Pellecchia High-quality early intervention services are critical for improving long-term outcomes for children on the autism spectrum. Yet, implementation science research repeatedly demonstrates poor implementation of evidence-based practices (EBP) within community-based early intervention. This research-to-practice gap is especially evident in large under-resourced service systems. Given the established benefit of early …
The BHI and CAHBIR are pleased to announce the availability of pilot grants for Rutgers-New Brunswick faculty to facilitate research at the Center for Advanced Human Brain Imaging Research. In addition to scanning on CAHBIRs state-of-the-art Siemens Prisma 3T magnet, researchers can propose studies that utilize CAHBIR’s new transcranial magnetic stimulator and EEG facilities, which …

Andrew Westbrook Robert Wood Johnson Medical School Rutgers University Neuromodulation and cognitive effort Cognitive control is effortful, causing people to avoid demanding tasks, and undermining their goal-directed behavior. Yet the nature of effort costs, and the systems biasing decisions to exert or withhold effort are largely unknown. Striatal dopamine promotes physical effort for reward, …
