Judgments of Learning (JOLs) are judgments of the likelihood of remembering recently studied material on a future test. Although JOLs have been extensively studied, particularly due to their important applications in education, relatively little is known about the cognitive and …
The goal of this research is to design and build a more life-like prosthesis with a higher degree of freedom than currently available prosthetic devices. Direct brain monitoring of the motor cortices was selected as a control mechanism that would provide more versatility than th…
Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has increasingly gained attention since its introduction fifteen years ago. Its simple data collection procedure makes it a potentially useful clinical tool to investigate reorganization or adaptation of the brain's func…
Interaction of electromagnetic fields with human tissues, particularly the brain, is of great interest in omnipresent wireless communications. A field analysis (e.g., FDTD) requires knowledge of the complex permittivity of tissues exposed to the electromagnetic radiation. Howeve…
For a long history, the diagnosis of psychiatric disorders relies on behavioral and self-reported symptoms, lacking objective neural or imaging biomarkers. Recent advances in neuroimaging techniques open opportunities for objective diagnosis protocols in psychopathology. However…
