Jacinta O’Shea has been awarded the title of Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience within the newest Recognition of Distinction spherical.
Professor O’Shea is a Wellcome/Royal Society Sir Henry Dale Fellow on the Oxford Centre for Human Mind Exercise, and leads the Translational NeuroStimulation Laboratory on the Division of Psychiatry. Her analysis pursuits embrace cognition, motion and neurobehavioural plasticity – the power of the mind to adapt and alter. She makes use of neural interference strategies, neuroimaging, and cognitive and behavioural strategies to take a look at how data processing is organised within the mind. She seeks to make use of these insights to advance therapies for people affected by psychiatric or neurological situations.
