“Control of response interference: caudate nucleus contributes to selective inhibition"
Claudia Schmidt obtained a Master’s degree in Psychology and completed her PhD studies at the department of Cognitive Neuroscience, Institute of Neuroscience and Medicine (INM-3) of the Research Centre Juelich. Her main research interests concern the study of the neural correlates of motor cognition and cognitive control processes, with a special emphasis on the role of subcortical structures, by using behavioural, neuroimaging (functional magnetic resonance imaging, fMRI) and lesion analysis techniques. More recently she is focusing her research on the investigation of the pathophysiology of disturbed motor cognition (i.e., apraxia) and the mechanisms underlying the (impaired) control of complex skilled actions following neurological conditions such as stroke External link

“Primary visual cortex is active in response to stimulation of phenomenally blind areas of the visual field in patients with cortical blindness.”
Colleen Schneider is an MD PhD student in Brain and Cognitive Science at the University of Rochester in Rochester, NY. She is interested in neurorehabilitation both from a clinical and research standpoint. Her PhD research in the lab of Brad Mahon (now at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA) uses functional MRI to investigate the neural correlates of vision recovery in stroke patients with hemianopia. Prior to her PhD, she worked for two years as a research technician in the lab of Yingxi Lin at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Boston, MA studying neuroplasticity at the cellular and molecular level. .
