Mikael Lundqvist's team

The computational cognition group is interested in the neural mechanisms underlying cognition. We study how neural dynamics support abilities such as temporarily keeping things in mind, planning or prioritizing sensory information. We have a theory-based approach where we deploy neural network simulations to build predictions that we then test in experimental data from human and animal models.
