This is what we do:
The central goal of our research program is threefold: 1) Advance our scientific knowledge of the neural and cognitive mechanisms that underlie cognitive control and memory 2) Optimize neuroimaging methods and experimental design to better identify and characterize these functions in the brain 3) Understand how these functions are disrupted in clinical populations in order to improve psychiatric care.

In the field of thinking, the whole history of science from geocentrism to the Copernican revolution, from the false absolutes of Aristotle’s physics to the relativity of Galileo’s principle of inertia and to Einstein’s theory of relativity, shows that it has taken centuries to liberate us from the systematic errors, from the illusions caused by the immediate point of view as opposed to “decentered” systematic thinking. – Jean Piaget
