Cognitive Neuroscientist specializing in the executive control of behaviour

Profile Summary

Dr Daniel Fehring's research focuses on cognitive neuroscience, the study of how the brain creates thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and memories. He studies how brain areas such as the prefrontal cortex contribute to high-level, 'executive' capabilities, including decision making, conflict resolution, and inhibition of inappropriate responses. Daniel also studies how modulating activity in these areas, for example, using electrical stimulation, alters cognitive performance.
