Computational Neuroscience - from Neuron to Behaviour

We also use computational neurosciences approaches such as mathematical modelling and machine learning in order to understand behaviour such as decision making, impulsivity, and action inhibition. We investigate those mechanisms in healthy populations, healthy elderly participants as well as patients with either dementia or parkinsonisms.
