Discovering More about the Brain
The Pediatric Neuroscience and Cognition Laboratory advances pediatric brain health through research at the intersection of neuropsychology, neuroscience, and artificial intelligence. Current projects leverage stereo-EEG, neuroimaging, machine learning, and computational neuroscience to characterize brain network dynamics, improve epilepsy surgery outcomes, and develop next-generation tools and interventions for children with neurological disorders. Additional research examines cognitive and behavioral outcomes in pediatric epilepsy, pain, and related conditions. Directed by Dr. Don Bearden, the laboratory provides research opportunities for undergraduate students, post-baccalaureates, graduate students, and medical students. Trainees contribute to scientific presentations, peer-reviewed publications, and translational research spanning clinical care, neuroscience, and emerging technologies. Applicants able to commit for at least one year, and preferably two, are encouraged to apply. Please see the adjacent “Jobs” section for current opportunities.
