Welcome to the CNoS Lab

The CNoS Lab investigates the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying schizophrenia.

Our research integrates behavioral assessments, neuroimaging methods, and computational modelling to identify the processes driving symptoms such as delusions, hallucinations, and cognitive impairments.

The ultimate goal of our work is to translate these insights into more effective treatments and recovery strategies.

Our studies integrate clinical interviews and cognitive testing with brain imaging to better understand how specific neural dynamics relate to patient outcomes. In addition, some of our research offers individuals with psychosis access to specialized, research-supported therapies.

Current Projects

Current projects in the CNoS Lab include investigations of delusion formation, auditory hallucinations, memory, and cognitive remediation approaches. By analyzing dynamic brain states during specific tasks, we aim to identify biomarkers that can predict treatment response and guide personalized interventions.
