Perceiving is believing: Perceptual inference anomalies in schizophrenia. [ 4/1/2021 - 3/31/2024 ]

Research Grant

Brief description In this study we explore the brain-ability-behaviour relationships that can explain causes of the severe mental illness, schizophrenia. Changes in the brain in schizophrenia affect how people perceive the world around them. Perception relies on our ability to use information in memory to shape what we perceive. We will study brain activity and task abilities that help us to understand where why and how this process becomes disrupted in the brain in persons with schizophrenia.
