The Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience Group focuses on the
development of mentalising, emotions, action understanding and
executive function during adolescence. A second focus of our research
is on social cognitive deficits in autism spectrum disorders.
Our
research involves a variety of behavioural (psychophysics,
eye-tracking, motion capture) and neuroimaging (MRI, fMRI and MEG)
methods.
